STEM learning is a lot more fun when students have the freedom to experiment, try new things, and see where their ideas take them. Strawbees turns that curiosity into hands-on learning where creativity & problem-solving come together. #STEMEducation #Makerspace

A meaningful makerspace doesn’t need complex technology. It needs tools that empower learners to explore, create and problem-solve. Peter Wardrip, Associate Professor at the University of Wisconsin and longtime maker educator, shares how thoughtful makerspace design can put creativity, collaboration and problem-solving at the center of the learning experience. See how simple, approachable tools like @strawbees can lower barriers to making while giving learners the freedom to explore, build and improve their ideas.
