Spent my morning ramping up the former Library Computer Lab into a Maker Lab (now that the heat is on in there). Part of me wants to keep the maker-ness of our efforts in the library-proper, but I will give this a go.
These are the displays on the window-wall as you approach the lab at the end of the library. They feature material and resources for various maker avenues:
The view on entering: Maker posters on the left, a new raspberry Pi station at the desk.
In the center of the room currently: a larger hacker table for Lego Mindstorm and electronics, and a smaller station for LittleBits or straw-paperclip structures.
Along the window wall: laptop/projector/mobile-screen/Boxcast capability, plus lighting and backdrop tripods (for the end wall once book fixtures are moved out over Winter Break.
Assorted accessible maker supplies, drawing boards, and kits:
Would like to have two-to-four real computer stations from the HS Lab for high-end work: 3D model designers, movie editing, InDesign book-production etc.
Like all healthy maker projects; a work in progress.
