Making a difference: the 3-STEP approach for equitable makerspaces
The Making Spaces Project is a 4 year international research project based at UCL IOE - Faculty of Education and Society, lead by project Prof Louise Archer and funded by Lloyd’s Register Foundation. The project developed resources to support equitable and inclusive practice in makerspaces aimed at improving diverse young people’s engagement with STEM. In the second phase of the project (2022-24) we have produced two key resources for the makerspace and informal STEM education sector: a guidebook ‘Towards equitable makerspaces: A guide to the 3-STEP approach’ and an accompanying online interactive professional development course. Prof. Louise Archer, Dr. Meghna Nag Chowdhuri, Dr. Qian Liu, Esme Freedman (UCL Making Spaces, UK) Ellen Havard (Knowle West Media Centre, UK) Pallab Shrestha (FabLab, Nepal) Tamara Morgan (Adaptive Design Association, USA) Claire Wicher (MadLab, UK) Heyam Heyak (Spark, Palestine)
