SUMMARY:SHAD Futures Day
DESCRIPTION:Makers Making Change is thrilled to be at SHAD Canada’s Futures Day! \nOur workshop description is below and interested participants can register through SHAD Canada’s website! \nNeil Squire’s Makers Making Change program supports STEM education through an assistive technology lens. Our workshops encourage students to tackle real-world challenges and to empathize with people with disabilities. In this workshop\, students can expect hands on use of tools like soldering irons to create or make an assistive device while also exploring community impact and how we can use science and technology for good.

SUMMARY:Learn to Solder Switch Latch Build at Dalhousie Makerspace
DESCRIPTION:Open to all Dalhousie Students \nAssistive devices are used to help complete everyday tasks more easily\, like opening bottles\, holding objects\, or accessing toys or electronics. \nThe intended users of the OpenAT Switch Latch are those who require a momentary switch to act as a toggle switch (aka latched switch)\, allowing the user to turn on for an extended time with a quick tap\, and off again with another quick tap. \nDon’t miss out on the chance to improve accessibility for someone who can really benefit from it!

SUMMARY:Assistive Tech Challenge
DESCRIPTION:ShiftKey Labs and IDEA are partnering with Makers Making Change for a 1-day challenge to design\, prototype and program assistive technology. Assistive devices are used to help complete everyday tasks more easily\, like opening bottles\, holding objects\, or accessing toys or electronics. You’ll be working with a multi-disciplinary team to address real challenges proposed by users. Together\, you’ll go through the entire design process in one day\, from ideation to prototyping and testing.  \nYour product will be added to the Makers Making Change design library\, so that users can recreate it and build on it more. \nDon’t miss out on the chance to improve accessibility for someone who can really benefit from it in the last hackathon of this semester!
