List the initial set of resources necessary to create a
makerspace
Brainstorm on the kinds of activities that can be initially
done with a start-up makerspace
Address possible concerns and challenges in starting a
makerspace at AISM
Draft preliminary guidelines for running the proposed

C. What is a makerspace?
Making is the core
concept of a makerspace. A
makerspace (or alternately
dubbed as hackerspace) is
an organized interest center
in a community or a school
where
hobbyists
and
enthusiasts design, build
and test materials-based
projects of their choice. The
DIY (do-it-yourself) culture
also serves as a major influence of the maker movement.
Makerspace projects are often a combination of ideas and
inspiration drawn from art, science, technology,
engineering and mathematics.
While community-based makerspaces have been in
existence for quite some time, their integration into schools
is fairly recent. A big event called a Makerfaire is also
organized periodically in different places to stage exhibits
and hold design competitions.
