Bringing Life to Learning
Exploration is the foundation of learning. Our Full STEAM Ahead mobile makerspace is designed to inspire creativity and build problem-solving skills in individuals of all ages. Focused on the integration of Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math (STEAM), our mobile learning space brings life to learning.
Sitka Schools has a well-developed Fabrication and Design Lab (Fab Lab) and an award-winning Robotics program at our comprehensive high school. A need was identified to bring this engaged, purposeful, irresistible learning to every student in the district, as well as create a feeder program for the Fab Lab and Robotics program. Thus the mobile makerspace cart was created.
