Field Trips to CREATE Makerspace
Our CREATE Challenges for school groups are unique, hands–on activities that give students the opportunity to engage with the principles of making, tinkering and design thinking, while also developing proficiency within the framework of the ISTE educational standards. Each CREATE Challenge is designed to fit comfortably within a field trip scheduled at Arizona Science Center.
In this next-generation educational facility, we use both new and traditional technologies to foster active learning and creative problem–solving in a flexible, multi–use environment. At CREATE, we hope to ignite a passion in both students and teachers for a kind of "serious play" that is typical of the most successful scientists, artists, engineers and inventors.
Please use the request form above to request a CREATE Makerspace only field trip. CREATE field trip fees are applicable to all schools, Title 1, and community groups.
