REFLECTION

By offering this program to the campus community, we have increased patronage in the MILL. This program has also led to more diversity in our workshop series, as the skills gained apply to various projects. Many learners are hesitant to learn about a new technology due to the intimidation factor; this program acts as a low-barrier introduction to makerspaces, and allows participants to gain skills they can then apply to other maker projects, leading to recurring visits and an increase in confidence.

Reflection

  • Success
  • Students are fully engaged and

excited to learn!

  • There are many different types
  • f programs you can do

with Kamigami robots. NOT JUST BUILD!

  • Kamigami is one of the most

asked for programs we offer.

  • FUN with a purpose!
  • Lesson Learned
  • Large groups can be a challenge.
  • Have students sync devices and

robots one at a time or at least 4 feet away from each other.

  • Do not attempt to build with K-2
  • grades. Have older kids put

together and youngers use for intro to coding and other Kamigami programs.

Reflection

  • Success
  • Patrons very engaged with material, retention was 100%
  • PR boost for library
  • Good balance between teaching and hands-on
  • Partnership with Coeur d'Alene tribe was very successful
  • Turnout and engagement with girls and people of color

was disproportionately strong

  • Lesson Learned
  • 8-18 is too broad a range for a single approach
  • 8-year-olds don't do well with powerpoints
  • Marketing was not optimal, leading to lower than

expected turnout

  • Drone laws are complicated and in flux- have a plan and

seek approval and present case to stakeholders
