Our Vision for Making

Barbara and Susan have been bringing the maker mindset to educators and students in Prince George's County Public Schools, area schools, the state, and nationally for the past four years. The growth mindset is behind everything we believe in, and we feel that our students and their teachers need to embrace this mindset too. We have worked tirelessly to help others see the power of hands-on, minds-on learning and build upon that learning to do things we never thought possible. We see it in the students we interact with every day. We see it in the teachers we support. We see it in the administrators who embrace this way of thinking.

Over the years, we have collected quite a list of articles, research papers, and books, all touting the benefits of constructivist, constructionist learning. Please visit this document to embark on a professional reading journey that may take you to places you've never even considered before and ways to activate student learning that result in life-long learners, ready to face the world!!
