About Studio 5/6
Through after-school and community programming, Studio 5/6 strives to develop creativity, innovation, problem-solving, and critical-thinking skills for both children and adults. Studio 5/6 is the first fab lab in the Arab world to publish lesson plans and educational content to the SCOPES-DF community platform, and all of their educational content includes the Fab I Can Statements as a framework for learning, which they have also translated into Arabic.
Studio 5/6, in support of this international, open-source community of practice, has posted over 30 lessons to the SCOPES-DF website, and they can all be found here in this collection.
