The Makey Makey Certified Educator Workshop is an intensive, hands-on, 3-hour virtual class during which you’ll learn how to teach Invention Literacy, Making, and Design Thinking using the award winning Makey Makey. This workshop is designed for teachers who have experience teaching Makey Makey with students, but want to know how to further this work!  In this one-day (3-hour) workshop you’ll learn to incorporate Makey Makey into your classroom using a number of our apps and activities beyond building a banana piano. You'll draw circuits, build pressure sensitive switches from cardboard, and discover the many ways Makey Makey can be applied to learning a wide range of subjects. Together we’ll learn best practices for teaching students how to invent with Makey Makey in and outside the classroom setting. You’ll do all of this in a supportive and energized virtual learning environment with fellow educators from all over the world.  Note: Makey Makey is not included in the workshop price. If you are an international participant and do not want supplies shipped to you at high cost, please reach out to us at education@joylabz.com and we can  subtract the price of the hardware from your order.  PREREQUISITE: Experiencing teaching Makey Makey in the classroom or completion of Makey Makey 101 Course.
