WiFAB Projects

Fab Lab projects fit a wide range of ages, skills and interests.
In this Section

There are so many questions to consider before starting a project. Will this project work? What equipment will I need? Is it age-appropriate for my students? Will it engage them?

One of the best parts of the WiFAB Cooperative is that we can share projects with each other. Find out about other educators' projects and successfully implement them in your Fab Lab. And don't forget to share a project of your own.
