The goal of the first EdTech Maker Space (ETMS) project, taking place in the summer of 2022, is to curate OER and align them to four Teaching Skills That Matter topics (Civic Education, Workforce Preparation, Health Literacy, and Financial Literacy). Along the way, participants will learn strategies for OER evaluation, skills/standards alignment, collaboration with edtech, and inclusive design.

The first ETMS project spans six weeks in June-July and there are three Zoom meetings at the dates and times below. Full participation, including attending the meetings and contributing to group work asynchronously is approximately ten hours total. Participants will be awarded badges that reflect their level of participation, contribution, and achievement of learning goals.
