Meet The Team
The curriculum developed for these virtual lab activties is funded in part by an Entente Canada Quebec grant. As learning activities of the MakerSPACE project used in the engineering curriculum, our goal is to aid in the development of competencies in students for success in the Fourth Industrial Revolution.
