    cardiCast episode 26 – Karen Miller – Curtin Library Makerspace

    Perth December 2017 cardiParty

    Recorded live

    Karen Miller, Curtin University Library Learning Coordinator & Academic, talks about the evolution of the Makerspace as a learning space to foster the development of skills such as: digital literacies, critical thinking, complex problem solving, creative and iterative design and collaborative learning. It invites hands-on exploration of emerging technologies to cultivate expertise for the future workplace.

    The Curtin Library Makerspace was one of the first university library makerspaces in Australia, and has recently expanded with its much bigger location on the 5th floor of the Robertson Library.
