This document provides an overview of makerspaces and defines them as innovative learning spaces that are hands-on, project-based, and focus on STEM subjects. It discusses who is involved in makerspaces, including teachers, students, and community members. Makerspaces allow students to collaborate, communicate, think critically, and create innovative solutions while learning skills like coding. They can be located in schools, libraries, museums, and other community spaces. The document promotes TechTerra Education as experienced experts who can help plan, deploy, and provide training for customized STEM makerspaces.
