The spirit of the Maker Movement was born from passion and providing better solutions that'll help others. What started out as a simple movement has made its way into many different areas of the world, including education. Making helps bring people of all different backgrounds and skill sets together, allowing them to invent with their heads, hearts, and hands each involved. These authentic connections also help prompt creative solutions that make a difference and showcase each person’s unique talents. Now a phenomenon with a global impact, the Maker Movement has brought so many creative people together. Now, that spirit has found its way into countless schools, classrooms, and libraries, helping today's teachers capitalize on the Maker Movement in education and offer fresh ways to excite all students. And, it's great to see how educators empower them to learn and express themselves through perseverance and project design.

Maker education and the maker movement is all about project-based or problem-based learning. It relies on hands-on, collaborative experiences where projects focus on solving real problems in order to demonstrate learning.
Maker education originated from the maker movement in 2005 and gained traction in large part due to Make magazine and the popularity of events like Maker Faires. This movement brought together DIY-ers, hobbyists, and tinkerers from all different backgrounds who wanted to improve the world around them through collaboration and experimentation.
This emphasis on discovery through creating is at the heart of maker education—and the maker education movement.

By the end of the decade, the Metaverse could be worth between $6 trillion and $13 trillion. But what is it?
The Metaverse is not simply immersive virtual reality or a really cool video game. It's a combination of technologies that allows an unlimited number of users to experience real-time rendered, 3D virtual worlds synchronously and persistently.
It is difficult to predict how the Metaverse will evolve, just as it was nearly impossible to predict the emergence of Facebook during the era of Windows 95. The Metaverse will not replace the internet, but will build upon and extend it.
