Bay Area Discovery Museum, California, USA: Case Study
In this video, Alison talks to Dr Lisa Regalla, Deputy Director of the Center for Childhood Creativity at the Bay Area Discovery Museum.
The Bay Area Discovery Museum (BADM) was the first in the world to introduce makerspaces for young children, and Lisa outlines the museum’s approach.
BADM launched a mobile makerspace in Spring 2017, the ‘Try It Truck’. Lisa describes how the Try It Truck works and outlines the ways in which the truck enables children to address engineering problems through a hands-on approach.
