"A makerspace is a place where students can gather to create, invent, tinker, explore and discover using a variety of tools and materials."
We print often so stop by the LC to see our 3D printer in action or to get a tutorial on how it works.
Example of a student project. 16 hours to print.
Not a good day for the 3D printer.

A MaKey MaKey is a small circuit board that turns physical objects (like a banana) into buttons for your computer. It works by creating electrical circuits. ... To complete the circuit, the person in the picture needs to hold a ground wire. This ground wire works as a return path for the electricity.
For a circuit to work, electricity needs to flow in a circular path, from a power source (when we’re using a MaKey MaKey our computer is the power source), to a object (ex. banana), and then back to the power source (it travels through you back to the laptop).
Students may use a Makey Makey kit in the LC during their lunch period or after school (from 2:15pm to 3:00pm).
Visit the Makey Makey website for lots of inventive examples and "how to" instructions.
