We have been testing our evolving methodology with over 10 000 young people, 300 teachers and assisted in the creation of 20 school maker spaces. We have received a lot of positive feedback and learned a great deal in the process. It became clear that although education technology is booming, having these modern tools is only half the battle; guidance and inspiration should be provided to the teachers so they can fully utilise them. This is what lead us to make our curricula widely accessible and create the first Maker’s Red Boxes.
