This work is significant as it represents Dr. Papert\u2019s last institutional research project and marks his first attempt to design an educational environment based on the theory of constructionism from scratch. The implications for education reform and school reform are numerous. However, in the context of the 2013 Interaction Design and Children focus on DIY\/maker culture, the overlooked work of the Constructionist Learning Laboratory the work of Papert, Stager and their colleagues is particularly pertinent. More than a decade before maker culture and \u201cfab labs\u201d emerged as a popular addition to formal education, Papert succeeded in creating a school built entirely upon the ideals of that movement.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Read the complete paper <a href=\"http:\/\/stager.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Papert\u2019s-Prison-Fab-Lab-Implications-for-the-maker-movement-and-education-design.pdf\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t miss the Tenth Annual <strong>Constructing Modern Knowledge<\/strong> institute, July 11-14, 2017.
