Specifically, we’ve seen that the Makers Empire program that takes account of the emotional side of learning and builds self-efficacy is supporting significant cognitive improvement with respect to spatial thinking,”Ī Macquarie University research study into primary school makerspaces also showed clear evidence that maker activities with Makers Empire significantly enhance learning and teaching outcomes for primary school students. What we’re seeing in this research is some clear indications of how to design large-scale educational programs to support that improvement. “We’ve known for a while now that spatial thinking is one of the really important ingredients to success across the STEM disciplines, and that spatial reasoning is malleable - it can be improved. A new UniSA research study has revealed compelling evidence that using Makers Empire can significantly improve primary school students’ spatial reasoning skills, whilst also improving students’ attitudes and positive feelings toward STEM and Design Thinking. Makers Empire has been part of a number of Australian and American research studies.
