A Makerspace Built by Elementary Students - Edutopia #makered | iPads, MakerEd and More  in Education | Scoop.it
When Ocean City Primary School, where I work, asked a group of 8-year-olds to create something, the students were given one design requirement: Whatever they created had to better the school community and solve a problem. This allowed students to be creative and explore their interests in addressing a real-world issue. Students realized that they had an authentic opportunity to make a difference in their school.
