This project is funded through the generous support of The State of Ohio under guidance of the STEM Committee
Through a unique collaboration with MIT Center for Bits and Atoms, the Northeast Ohio Mobile Fab Lab will take personal fabrication to schools in the region that are limited by geography and resources.
This highly accessible tool will catalyze student innovation from concept to fabrication. Its mobility will also amplify partnerships across school districts, K-20, and sectors. Already embedded in our local STEM high school (MC2 STEM), the Fab Lab has proven to increase student engagement and provide a platform for dynamic teaching and learning.
Interested in having the MC2 STEM Mobile FabLab visit your school? Start the ride here!
