WHY SHOULD YOU HAVE A MAKERSPACE?
From New Horizons Report: “One of the most significant aspects of 3D printing for teaching and learning is that it enables more authentic exploration of objects that may not be readily available to schools.While it has become easier for teachers and students to work with these models, some of the most compelling applications of 3D printing in K-12 come from schools and programs that involve students creating something that is all their own.”
New Horizons Report for K-12: http://www.nmc.org/pdf/2013-horizon-report-k12.pdf - pg 28; image from http://goo.gl/nClQ55

PLAY = LEARNING

• “learn how to use tools and processes to help them reach their own goals and realize their own ideas”
• “shared spirit, ethics, discipline, mutual respect, reciprocity, self-directed learning”

PARTICIPATORY LEARNING
oHeightened motivation and new forms of engagement through meaningful play and experimentation;oLearning that feels relevant to students’ identities and interests;oOpportunities for creating using a variety media, tools and practices;oCo-configured expertise where educators & students pool their skills and knowledge and share in the tasks of teaching & learning;oAn integrated system of learning where connections between home, school, community and world are enabled and encouraged

“The library is in the learning business, not
just the book business,” said Director Jeff
Krull.
“Allen County collaborated with TekVenture, an educational nonprofit specializing in makerspace technology, to create the lab. Working off a simple one-page agreement, TekVenture agreed to provide the trailer, along with the equipment and some free programming, and Allen County offered free parking.”

MAKERSPACE RULES
Everyone is a Maker • Our world is what we make it. • If you can imagine it, you
can make it. • If you can’t open it, you don’t own it. • We share what we make,
and help each other make what we share • We see ourselves as more than
consumers—we are productive; we are creative. • Makers ask, “What can I do
with what I know?” • Makers seek out opportunities to learn to do new things,
especially through hands-on, DIY (do-it-yourself) interactions. • The divisions
between subjects like math and art and science dissolve when you are making
things. Making is an interdisciplinary endeavor. • It’s all right if you fail, as long as
you use it as an opportunity to learn and to make something better. • We’re not
about winners and losers. We’re about everyone making things better.• We help
one another do better. Be open, inclusive, encouraging and generous in spirit. •
We celebrate other Makers — what they make, how they make it and the
enthusiasm and passion that drives them.

Article: http://goo.gl/m3Xmfq Forbes: http://goo.gl/YcPXtF
Anything that can exist in liquid or powder form – in other words, ingredients that can then be extruded through a nozzle or syringe – can be printed. This includes sugar, cheese, sauces, and others. A meal comprising of pizza, an eggplant dish, corn pasta, and panna cotta was recently 3D printed for The New York Times. - Forbes
“This is the kind of potential that I think a lot of people don't understand about 3D printing. By decentralizing the manufacturing process it allows the creation of products anywhere. That's a huge paradigm shift that, once it's better established and more efficient, is going to shake the foundations of industry at many levels.” – Commenter SkipErnst
