What will happen in your session?

What is the goal or outcome of your session?

The outcome of the session is for all participants to be engaged and inspired by the potential that Digital Making has to change the world in which we live. Physical outcomes will be prototypes of inventions designed and developed by participants.

If your session requires additional materials or electronic equipment, please outline your needs.

We will be fully equipped to lead our session. We just require furniture and electricity.
