Maker Spaces (or Fab Labs ... choose your terminology) are being incorporated into schools all around the world as a way of engaging students in subject matter and building bridges between technology design subjects and the more academic subjects like maths and history.

3D printing isn't the beginning and the end of a Maker Space, by any means, but it is an increasingly important, fun and useful technology that can inspire all manner of creative exploration.  This is why we work with schools, to give students and teachers a glimpse at the possibilities, and to assist them to establish their own digital fabrication laboratories.
