We Are Makers

Maker Movement at CISS

  • We Are Makers tells the story of the Maker Movement.
  • It's the story not of tools but of people. A publisher, an entrepreneur, a design professor, a middle school teacher, two museum educators, and a creative director.
  • Each provides an important viewpoint on why new technologies and communities of making are bringing us back to something deeply human.

"What if everyone is creative,

and the tools to shape our world are within reach?"

"The Return of the Hand ---

I'm a Maker . . . . and here's what I do."

"As human beings, we are makers. Our life is perceived differently when we view it that way."

- Dale Dougherty, Founder of Maker Movement.

Create more opportunities for young people to make, and, by making, build confidence, foster creativity, and spark interest in science, technology, engineering, math, the arts—and learning as a whole.

STEAM (STEM + A for Arts). Many of the next-generation of science standards are related to hands-on building and creation.

Enhance the academic experience here at Concordia.

Every classroom can be creators within their curriculum...

Students would benefit from working with tools and materials that are used in a professional setting.

Transform our students from consumers to creators.

kids have hands-on experiences rather than just reading, swiping, or hearing about it.
