Overview
This is a challenge to build a piece of equipment for the classroom.
More details here
Justification
We have to say why we should be allowed to enter, by the 11th of march. This section is a draft for ideas about why we are awesome. I suspect they are looking for impressive projects, so if people want to blow their own trumpets go ahead. Ideally mobile/electronic stuff? Srimech's turing machine might be a good thing, if he wants to get involved?
We have recently started Young Hackspace where we show a bunch of kids around the space and get them to interact. One of the activities was we got them to draw pictures for the hackspace zoo, which we then scanned and laser cut for them to take home.
Ideas
There are different routes we could go in terms of educational content.
Creative
- Plasticine makerbot
Programmable
- Some robot or other. Maybe a plotter controlled like logo?
- Moved to discussion page.
- Programming Bricks (see discussion page)
Science
- A visible (possibly UV) spectrometer.
- See above link or this pages Discussion.
Draft Proposal
A draft of the proposal we will submit. Nothing so far.
The following is a proposal from London Hackspace (LHS) members that would like to participate in the Hackspace Challenge.
The LHS is a large organisation with an increasing number of available equipment and an increasing number of member expertise. Currently we have over 230 members from which we can draw expertise and man-power.
We would like to submit XXX as a possible project. As it it something that would conform to the criteria set out by the competition organisers. We have the equipment to prototype, develop and construct XXX at the LHS, due to our use of a Makerbot, Laser cutter, Mill etc.
