Maker Education Card Game
I like and have always used games in my classrooms. One of my current educational interests is maker education. As such, I have begun creating games for maker education — see my first one, a board game, at Reflecting on the Making Process. The game I am presenting here is a card game that ends with the makers making something based on selected cards. Each maker picks a card from each of the three categories:
- The Thing or Process
- The Product
- The Population.
For example, a maker may choose, Create a Blueprint from The Thing or Process category; a New Toy from the Product category; and Adults from the population category meaning the maker would create a blueprint for a new toy for adults. The educator and makers can choose whether it is a “blind” pick or one in which the makers see their options. (Note — I would love to increase options in all categories. If you have additional card ideas, please leave them in the comments section).
