Materials Lab
The Materials Lab is a self-service project workshop. The purpose is to offer educators a space in which creativity in teaching can flourish. The freedom to utilize such a wide variety of crafting machines and materials always opens the door to inspiration. Teaching is then enhanced by creative ideas that complement the basic curriculum and assist students in learning.
Each site or department allocates their own Materials Lab budget for the year. Please check with your supervisor.
