I think the model offers a really smart and simple anilitical tool for our teaching artists. I love that it’s simple, and in its simplicity it reveals the variation of the kind of parents and the kind of visitors we experience. I think something really nice about a simple tool like that is it forces us to surface our assumptions about learning, what productive learning looks like in the MAKESHOP. I think that the array of tools you guys (Aristeia) have provided serve as a fantastic cornerstone of professional learning experiences for teaching artists, educators, and facilitators within makerspaces.
