I attended a professional development workshop at Zen Maker Lab and it was one of the best Pro-D's I have ever attended in my 10 year teaching career.

The projects perfectly align with the B.C. Applied Design, Skills and Technologies curriculum. I would highly recommend Zen Maker Lab to all creative and curious minds

Both of my daughters really enjoyed the camp (they said it was their favourite camp of the summer!), and they couldn't wait to tell and show us everything they learned.

 

I know they were also really excited about seeing young women lead the camp and being role models for them and other girls interested in STEM subjects. I would have no hesitation recommending Zen Maker Lab to any family!

The maker lab environment gives kids the chance to learn design thinking, prototyping and even in some cases kids are commercializing the product ideas they come up with. I have incorporated this unique lab environment into my university engineering design class with the students successfully fabricating their own very creative designs.
