- Find Summer Program Coordinators - to expand out programs in the summer. Train the people to run the programs in schools in the summer. Open Source Hardware Summer Program. STEAM Camp.
- "You learn how to do it and you get to keep it" - great value for students.
- Also "I show you how to do it, but with a much broader mindset" - you don't have to do it all alone.
- Using discarded materials is also useful.
- Not off the shelf - but making stuff yourself - is big.
