Creative Conscience Awards 2016
Katie Baggs’ MAKEME project was Highly Commended at the recent Creative Conscience Awards, https://www.creative-conscience.org.uk/winners/katheryn-platts-baggs/
The MAKEME Toolkit is a proposal to teach all subjects through making and is aimed at teachers in British secondary schools. The idea is to put making at the centre of all education and to engage both teachers and children in learning to think through imagining, making and crafting in an enjoyable way. The project developed from the idea of weaving/making and the traditional expressions of craft in combination with subjects not traditionally associated with it.
