Course Description
This course aims to give participants a deeper understanding of what makerspaces are and how they can be used in schools to support teaching. This course is also designed to help teachers come up with projects and ideas, makerspace ideas in particular, that could fit into their school’s curriculum and help them to understand which resources they would need to create a low-cost maker space at school.
Makerspaces are places where students can experiment and create things in schools, and are a combination between a science lab, a woodshop, a computer lab, and an art room. They teach students creative ways to design, experiment, build, and invent as they engage in STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics) courses. Makerspaces are a great way for students to experiment with their school’s curriculum, and develop real-world skills at the same time.
By the end of this course, participants will have a better understanding of what makerspaces are and will be able to create a low-cost makerspace in their school that is aligned with their own school’s curriculum.

Kurset i Barcelona handlede om makerspace. Det har til en vis grad mødt vores forventninger. Den ene instruktør var godt ind i stoffet og har kunnet give os en teoretisk baggrund for makerspace. Den anden instruktør, som var hyret havde ingen kontakt med kursusdeltagerne. Han har ikke formået at finde ud af, på hvilket niveau vi har befundet os og hvad vores behov var. Heldigvis var der en observatør, som indgik som tredje instruktør (dette var ikke planlagt på forhånd). Han har givet os mange gode ideer og fif, som vi kunne tage med hjem. Et kursus som dette kræver en mere hands-on-experience. Ikke "snakke om" men "vise hvordan". Jeg er godt klar over, at den kulturelle oplevelse også er en del af Erasmus+. Det var dog underligt at vores instruktør brugte det meste af den første dag på at snakke om Barcelona og alle seværdigheder. På planen var der "cultural activities" den sidste dag. Det viste sig, at vi fik nogle vouchers til nogle af seværdighederne, som vi kunne bruge de andre dage og at der var en guided tour gennem en bydel af Barcelona med en af lærerne onsdag eftermiddag. Hermed blev det kulturelle arrangement den sidste dag til en fridag. Det synes vi, var problematisk. For det første har vi ansøgt om 6 kursusdage som faktisk blev til 5 og for det andet kom det på den måde til at koste en ekstra dag før vi kunne flyve hjem igen. Det virkede i det hele taget som om kursusprogrammet var lavet fordi det skulle laves. De forskellige del holdt ikke stik.
