Build a Better Book: Empathy-Driven Design in School and Library Makerspaces
Presenters: April Chamberlain, Dr. Stacey Forsyth, Ian Matty, Chelsea Sims

Participants will learn how to harness maker technologies (3D-printing, coding and electronics) to create interactive, inclusive products that can be accessed by multiple senses.
