We train parents to collaborate with teachers in introducing cutting-edge concepts such as robotics, mechanical and electrical engineering, coding, artificial intelligence, and machine learning into classrooms. Parents who successfully complete our training program and meet the criteria have the chance to join Makeosity as paid coaches.

In today’s rapidly evolving world, having a strong foundation in STEAM subjects is crucial for personal and professional success. By instilling these skills early on, students gain a competitive edge and the ability to navigate the complexities of the modern workforce. Moreover, the involvement of parents from the same communities in the education process creates a powerful support system that reinforces the importance of STEAM education at home.  It also ensures cultural relevance, provides powerful role models for students, fosters community engagement, increases parental involvement, addresses educational disparities, and contributes to job creation and economic impact within the community.

“Make Everything Possible” (MEP) elementary and middle school electrical engineering curriculum and learning resource web site is a product of a dynamic partnership with Carnegie Mellon Robotics Academy (CMRA). We’ve taken elements from their electrical engineering program for young adults and tailored them for younger students. Additionally, we’ve developed original materials, including electrical engineering comic books available in English, Spanish, and Chinese, accessible on the MEP website.

In the MEP program, students dive into a fascinating world encompassing atoms, electrons, static and current electricity, circuits (both simple and complex), engineering schematics, and the tools of electrical engineering. Their mission? To make everything possible using the skills they acquire. This course is instrumental for several compelling reasons:

Fostering Creativity: The “A” in STEAM is all about Art and Design. Our emphasis on creativity is pivotal for overall student development. It transcends traditional education, empowering students to approach problem-solving with innovative and imaginative thinking.

Real-World Application: Our curriculum is not confined to theoretical knowledge; it’s designed for practical application. By aligning with an electrical engineering course from Carnegie Mellon Robotics Academy, students gain hands-on experience. This approach bridges the gap between classroom learning and real-world scenarios, effectively preparing them for future challenges.

Teacher Empowerment: The professional development aspect of our program is tailored to equip educators with confidence and tools for seamlessly integrating STEAM education into their classrooms. Empowered teachers inspire students, fostering a positive learning environment and instilling a lifelong love for learning.

Relevance to the Modern Workforce: In our rapidly evolving world, the skills covered in this course, ranging from understanding atoms to working with engineering schematics, are highly relevant. These skills not only form a foundation for further academic pursuits but also align with the demands of the modern workforce, where innovation and problem-solving are paramount.

Encouraging a Growth Mindset: The course challenges students to “Make Everything Possible,” promoting a growth mindset. Students learn that challenges are opportunities for growth, cultivating the resilience and adaptability necessary for success in a dynamic world.

Community Impact: The course extends beyond individual benefits by fostering community engagement. Through training educators and students in STEAM subjects, we contribute to the creation of a community that values education, creativity, and the skills essential for future success.

At Makeosity, we’re not just offering a course; we’re creating a pathway for students, educators, and communities to thrive in the exciting realm of STEAM education. Join us as we make everything possible together.
