Mr. McAsh - I am very interested in the "maker" strategy. I'm thinking of experimenting with the concept with my Grade 9 Media Arts class next semester (focus on making audio and video products). Perhaps it would be a good idea to start a user created group for people to share - related to "maker" strategy?
