CREATE Connect is an online education community platform developed for teachers and educators interested in STEAM and maker education to find and connect with others to discuss different projects, share ideas, work together or simply help one another with their problems by sharing insights and best practice.
The CREATE Connect platform aims to provide the bridge between technology and teachers. One of the biggest problems with new technology in education is educators not being able to connect with other people who have successfully integrated new technologies into the classroom for advice and support or even experts in the industry for help and resources. This platform solves this problem by offering an open platform that educators at all levels, industry partners and educational leaders can interact with each other, discuss common issues and create solutions for integrating technology into their classrooms, labs and makerspaces.
