Colleen Graves is the author of ‘Challenge-Based Learning in the School Library Makerspace’.

A MakerSpace at its very core is about creating something out of nothing. This is a sanctum where children, adults and entrepreneurs alike can collaborate, learn and create. Today as technology advances at an accelerated pace, EdNex with MakerSpace offers your institution the opportunity to create spaces equipped with the most advanced technology to give your students an opportunity to learn, create and innovate. No matter the discipline of study or the sector of employment, your institution now can offer the upper hand to anyone who is a part of your institution.

In a MakerSpace, your students are given an opportunity to engage in hands-on learning, and develop critical thinking skills that intersperse together to transform them into the next generation thinkers and leaders!

School makerspace ready for hands-on STEM learning and innovation

Ednex Makerspaces for K–12 Schools

Inspiring Creativity, Innovation & Hands-On Learning

Ednex helps schools by providing creative Makerspaces. These spaces are interactive and packed with useful technology. They let students dream, plan, create, and test their ideas. From trying coding and robotics to exploring engineering, crafts, and 3D printing, our makerspace options help students think outside the box, stay curious, and build real-life problem-solving skills for every grade level.

If your goal is to start a makerspace in schools, set up a STEAM makerspace, or combine these ideas into a virtual makerspace, Ednex provides all the tools and resources to make hands-on learning come alive.

Understanding Makerspaces in Schools

A Makerspace in Education is a space where students work together using tools, materials, and technology. It gives them chances to:

  • Learn STEM and STEAM topics
  • Build and test models
  • Design both digital and physical projects
  • Use robotics, electronics, and coding
  • Participate in hands-on projects
  • Try new ideas, improve them, and come up with innovations

Ednex Makerspaces fit all types of teaching methods. They work for both planned lessons and free exploration.
