Amazing new tools, materials and skills turn us all into makers. Using technology to make, repair or customize the things we need brings engineering, design and computer science to the masses. Fortunately for educators, this maker movement overlaps with the natural inclinations of children and the power of learning by doing. The active learner is at the center of the learning process, amplifying the best traditions of progressive education. This book helps educators bring the exciting opportunities of the maker movement to every classroom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eChildren are natural tinkerers\u003c\/b\u003e Their seminal learning experiences come through direct experience with materials. Digital fabrication, such as 3D printing and physical computing, including Arduino, MaKey MaKey, and Raspberry Pi, expands a childs toy and toolboxes with new ways to make things and new things to make. For the first time ever, childhood inventions may be printed, programmed or imbued with interactivity. Recycled materials can be brought back to life.\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\nWhile school traditionally separates art and science, theory and practice, such divisions are artificial. The real world just doesnt work that way! Architects are artists. Craftsmen deal in aesthetics, tradition and mathematical precision. Video game developers rely on computer science. Engineering and industrial design are inseparable. The finest scientists are often accomplished musicians. The maker community brings children, hobbyists and professionals together in a glorious celebration of personal expression with a modern flare.\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\nWhen 3-D printing, precision cutting, microcomputer control, robotics and computer programming become integral to the art studio, auto shop or physics lab, every student needs access to tools, knowledge and problem solving skills. The maker movement not only blurs the artificial boundaries between subject areas, it erases distinctions between art and science while most importantly obliterating the crippling practice of tracking students in academic pursuits or vocational training. There are now multiple pathways to learning what we have always taught and things to do that were unimaginable just a few years ago.\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eMaking for every classroom budget\u003c\/b\u003e Even if you dont have access to expensive (but increasingly affordable) hardware, every classroom can become a makerspace where kids and teachers learn together through direct experience with an assortment of high and low-tech materials. The potential range, breadth, power, complexity and beauty of projects has never been greater thanks to the amazing new tools, materials, ingenuity and playfulness you will encounter in this book.\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\nIn this practical guide, Sylvia Martinez and Gary Stager provide K-12 educators with the how, why, and cool stuff that supports classroom making.","brand":"Other","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31621275385939,"sku":"9780989151108","price":34.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0243\/7593\/products\/9780989151108-0.jpg?v=1763695365"},{"product_id":"make-3d-printing","title":"Make: 3D Printing","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe 3D printing revolution is well upon us, with new machines appearing at an amazing rate.

I assume no prior knowledge, so we’ll take a tour of the interface and all the different workspaces in Tinkercad. We’ll start with creating simple, and then more complex, designs. We’ll edit downloaded designs for our own needs. We’ll import sketches to model. We’ll apply materials in the Sim lab and look at physical reactions, make LEGO-like pieces in the Bricks and Blocks workspace, learn to code with codeblocks, and approach everyday problem solving. We’ll learn how to collaborate and share our designs. We’ll solve some everyday problems and even investigate how ChatGPT (artificial intelligence) might assist.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"description\"\u003eAll projects are modeled with a goal of eventual 3D printing. However, 3D printing itself is only discussed as needed to explain where a design can be optimized for it, such as when making a two-color model. The book leans more toward incorporating “design thinking,” a non-linear, iterative process that helps us understand who will use our models, how those models should work, and innovate solutions to prototype and test. If you’re used to 2D drafting, such as on AutoCAD software, know that the 3D modeling mindset is different. But also know that you don’t need any 2D training to do it. 231 pages.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Make:","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48510656708801,"sku":"9781680458374","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0243\/7593\/files\/Make_Tinkercad_Cover.jpg?v=1782169832"},{"product_id":"make-physics","title":"Make: Physics","description":"\u003cdiv data-csa-c-id=\"6xw5nb-5gri4r-907hw5-j4svmb\" data-cel-widget=\"aplus-module-8\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv aria-live=\"polite\" data-a-expander-name=\"aplus-module-expander\" data-a-expander-collapsed-height=\"700\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv aria-expanded=\"false\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJuly 24, 2026 @ 1pm PT \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e- Join Dale Dougherty and Joan Horvath and Rich Cameron, authors of the new Make: Physics book, to discover how their hands-on physics experiments can transform passive learning into an interactive exploration of the world around us. \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/meet.zoho.com\/frhy-fax-ghf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eREGISTER HERE!\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBuild Projects to Explore Calculus-based Mechanics\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMake: Physics\u003c\/strong\u003e applies electronics and 3D printing—as well as calculus principles—to teach selected topics in first-semester college physics.
