On Saturday, October 1, 2022, we inaugurated the Middle & High School Makerspace. This space is one more environment where our students can create life-changing experiences.
Guided by defined learning outcomes, students work together to make things using simple or complex technology and strengthening their creativity and problem-solving autonomy. They can enjoy working with crafting materials and textiles, woodshop equipment, a media lab, a 3D printer, laser and vinyl cutters, and programming and robotics equipment.
Teachers become designers of experiences and take lessons from the classroom into a practical setting. This gives students a chance to learn by doing, while they develop practical and 21st-century skills for the future.
Our makerspace has great potential as a host of different opportunities for active learning, since it will provide students with the innovative and creative education that defines our curricula, now with an even more technological space.
At the institutional level, an organization is the design and establishment of structures, processes, functions, and responsibilities, as well as the methods and techniques necessary to reach objectives in the most effective way. The challenge herein is to ensure that all activities, areas involved, and resources used are coordinated to achieve such purpose.
Freedom of action, thought, and expression is the essence of the teacher-school relationship, which entails commitments and responsibilities on both sides. For a teacher, adhering to the educational project is possible within the concept of freedom. At the same time, the right to teach with freedom is possible within the curricular framework of principles and ethics.
