Design Lab @ UVA
The Design Lab in the School of Education at the University of Virginia lives on the third floor of Ridley Hall. The purpose of the Design Lab is to support and encourage students, faculty, local educators, and non-profit organizations in their endeavors to design, create, experiment, and prototype with technology in education. An important part of our work in the Design Lab is to help educators integrate technology, computer science, and computational thinking through culturally responsive teaching and equitable teaching practices. Our goal is to provide future and current educators with a comfortable working environment in the Design Lab and we want all EHD students to know they are welcome in the Design Lab, no matter what their area of study.
Current supplies range from simple craft materials to physical computing devices like robots and micro-controllers that are available to use in the lab itself or to check-out. We are currently piloting hardware reservation, material, requests, and space reservations. Please contact Kim Wilkens, ksw8y@virginia.edu if you have further questions.
