Autodesk recently kicked off its annual Make it Real Challenge to fuel the growth of maker education. This competition invites students and educators to explore how they can integrate hands-on learning into their schools and communities. The grand prize? A fully-equipped makerspace worth over $70,000, complete with cutting-edge tools like a Ultimaker 3 3D printer, Dremel DigiLab Laser Cutter, and ten Chromebooks. On top of that, every participating school worldwide gets free access to Autodesk's suite of design software and educational resources.
This year, the program has expanded significantly, selecting four schools to receive these state-of-the-art makerspaces. We were blown away by the quality of the entries, which showcased creative ways schools are already fostering innovation through making. Now, let’s celebrate the deserving winners of this year’s contest and their inspiring video submissions!
First up is **Jim Bridger Middle School** in North Las Vegas, Nevada. Their “Super Maker Teacher†led students in demonstrating just how these tools could transform their learning experiences. Check out their video submission below:
Next is **Paradise Intermediate School** in Paradise, California. Despite facing challenges, their staff and students showcased incredible resourcefulness by creating with what they had. Their determination was inspiring, and you can see it in their video entry here:
From Massachusetts, we have **Brighton High School**, where students not only presented their design thinking process but also facilitated insightful discussions about the importance of making. Watch their video submission here:
Lastly, from Connecticut comes **Killingly Intermediate School**. With a nod to Ferris Bueller, they highlighted their current projects using everyday materials like cardboard and envisioned how the prize tools would further enrich their learning environment. Their video is available here:
In addition to the grand prize winners, Autodesk awarded eight schools with an honorable mention—a set of ten Chromebooks each. Among them are Boston Latin Academy, CLK Elementary School, Dr. W. J. Creel Elementary School, Gonzales Middle School, Joseph P Tynan Elementary School, Mother Caroline Academy, Pittsburgh Langley K-8, and Trenton High School.
These schools represent a diverse range of creativity and innovation. We're thrilled to see what the future holds for all 12 schools as they dive deeper into maker education. It’s clear that hands-on learning is not just beneficial—it’s essential for preparing students for the challenges ahead. Stay tuned for more updates on their progress and contributions to this exciting field!
