Many attendees were jealous to hear we live within an easy drive of Stanford's Center for Educational Research, the venue for the FabLearn Conference. Making and digital fabrication is truly a world-wide movement in education, and the conference attracted people from a bewildering number of states and more than a few countries! No matter how close or how far we had to travel to attend, we were all there to share our experiences in, and best practices for fostering learning through making.

Between workshops on the latest online tools, or presentations on research papers, we had some time to tinker with some projects. In the picture below Mr. Greenleaf holds his contribution to a lighted sculpture made of unique circuits invented each crafter. Projects like this infuse a light and fun energy into the process of understanding circuits!
