MyPlace

Workshop length: 3 wks (3 hrs per wk)
Age range: 8 - 15 yrs

MyPlace is a 4 week blended learning project, an invitation to young people (and their families) to participate in the exploration of building, making and interactivity, giving learners an opportunity to show the world a place that they love, and/or redesign a place in the way that they would like for the future.

Participants re-imagined themselves as architects, cyclists, city planners, artists, and gardeners - citizens of Ireland with a story to tell about their place as they see it now, or as they would like it to be.

Our MyPlace pack includes:

  • Access to video learning content

  • Student technology kits

  • Teacher curriculum resource (lesson plans + additional activities)

  • Live Zoom support

This project was one of the best things we did during lockdown! It made us think about what’s important to us in terms of place. We got to be creative, and learn new things under the guidance of the Make Create Innovate team! We love what we made and we’re sad it’s finished!”
