Learning Through Making (LTM) is a non-profit educational start-up. Our objective is to educate future innovators, to inspire them to design, build, code and reach for the stars. We want to engage students and teachers, alike, to develop solutions that will solve global challenges, one piece at a time. We host camps and workshops at schools and other educational institutions; we are combining our technical expertise with our passion for education to reimagine K-12 education and revamp informal learning.
Our mission is to advance informal learning using state-of-the-art educational tools. We want to build a partnership with educational institutions and bridge the gap to take students from schools to colleges to the real world. We want to inspire students and educators to raise the bar for STEM education and engage students in kinesthetic learning. We believe that our future problem-solvers are out there and we want to empower them.
"Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world."
