“A makerspace is a
physical location
where people gather
to share resources
and knowledge,
work on projects,
network, and build.”
Educause Learning Initiative article:
7 things about Makerspaces
More definitions: http://renovatedlearning.com/2015/04/02/defining-makerspaces-part-1/
“Makerspaces are collaborative
learning environments where
people come together to share
materials and learn new skills…
makerspaces are not necessarily
born out of a specific set of
materials or spaces, but rather a
mindset of community partnership,
collaboration, and creation.”
