The Maker Movement is a revolutionary movement that has been driven by new tools and technology, such as 3-D printing, robotics, microprocessors, wearable computing, and smart materials. Programming languages are being invented at an unprecedented rate. New tools and new technology equal new and more aordable learning opportunities. The Maker Movement combines all educational disciplines and several skill sets to creatively solve problems and explore your imagination. ! Project STEAM MD is part of the Maker Movement. This weekend we had the opportunity to visit the Maker Fair in Silver Spring, Maryland. We made great connections within the Maker Community. We were able to inspire and get inspired!
