Abstract: Over the last decade, digital fabrication and “making” have provided a new platform for bringing powerful ideas and meaningful tools to students (Blikstein, 2013). Digital fabrication has the potential to be “the ultimate construction kit” (Briones, 2019). With strong ties to the maker movement digital fabrication is the perfect tool for engagement in project-based learning. Maker spaces provide students with safe areas that allow students to safely use digital fabrication to make, build, and share their creations" (Blikstein, 2 013, p. 6). This poster will review new curriculum areas where digital fabrication has been implemented. The influence that digital fabrication has recently played in the arts and music will be reviewed. The classroom impact will be emphasized. Blikstein, P. (2013). Digital fabrication and ‘making’ in education: The democratization of invention. In FabLabs: Of machines, makers and inventors, 4, 1-21.
