Today, much learning takes place digitally; however, working with one's hands is still an important skill set. Hands-on tasks allow students to see how the skillsets they are learning in the classroom can be applied to actual models. They need to figure out how to build the structure and how to make circuits actually function! Engaging with things like Keva Planks and circuits encourage students to build a maker mindset. A maker mindset encourages students to be creative and learn from failure; they will have the ability to creatively solve problems on their own and with their peers, which fosters life skills such as collaboration, problem-solving, and communication.
