Makeology introduces the Maker Movement and its connection to interest-driven learning. This book explores how makerspaces can be used in various educational settings, from nursery schools to higher education institutions, to foster engagement and creativity. The authors examine the historical roots of the movement, tracing connections back to early educational predecessors such as Froebel, Dewey, Montessori, and Papert.
