August 2022 Library Resource of the Month

No matter the subject, the Faculty Resource and Makerspace for Education sections of the Makerspace LibGuide might spark exciting new ideas for your curriculum.

University Library’s August Resource of the Month, the Makerspace LibGuide, offers examples of how Makerspace projects can enhance your teaching. The LibGuide also explains the theories and practices behind the makerspace movement in education. Students learn by making tangible objects through authentic, real-life learning opportunities that allow for a guided, collaborative process, which incorporates peer feedback.

To learn more about the Makerspace’s tools and how to incorporate the Makerspace into your curriculum, please contact Leslie Whitford, Digital Initiatives Librarian.
