Description
Summary:In 21st century the technological innovation has reshaped our educational system. Different educational methods and environments are used to facilitate students and teachers. Educational makerspaces are also one of them. This new trend has shifted educational system to student centered instead of teacher centered. Pervasive Learning (P-Learning) environment for educational makerspaces is one of the emerging environmentsfor teaching and learning due to price reduction in handheld devices’, facility for sharing the technological resources, support, and smartness of smartphone technology. Educational Makerspaces environment provide the facility to teachers and learners to create a virtual environment fully equipped with latest ICT tools to share ideas, to perform experiments and collaborate with each other whenever and wherever they are. Thus, P-learning for educational makerspaces can access and share the resources for teaching and learning material beyond the boundaries of the traditional classroom arrangement. This paper presents the idea of P-learning environment for educational makerspaces which is not limited to a single geographic location or mobile or location-based technologies; rather, it accesses, shares the resources, and facilitates teaching and learning from anywhere and at any time with any handheld device means 24*7*12. The purpose of this paper is to propose a fully equipped makerspace classroom so that the students from remote areas or who cannot afford laboratory expenses can access virtually labs, share their ideas, collaborate with each other, and perform experiments
