ASMS Cuts Ribbon On Remote Learning Center & Makerspace
The Alabama School of Mathematics and Science (ASMS) recently held a grand opening for the Remote Learning Center and Makerspace, one of the few innovation spaces on a school campus in the state of Alabama. The Remote Learning Center can safely accommodate classes of socially distanced students in person. “It also provides upgraded technology for faculty to more effectively record, stream and teach remotely, as if they were in person,” ASMS announced. “The classrooms represent a new, safer space for students to learn, as they are designed with COVID-19 guidelines in mind.” In the long-term, the school plans to transform the facility into a “Makerspace,” what it calls a collaborative workspace for creating, learning, exploring and sharing. The ASMS robotics and rocketry teams will be housed in the space, with new equipment such as a 3D printer, CNC router and laser cutter. The project was funded through a $350,000 appropriation from the state CARES Act, plus funding from the Daniel Foundation, J.L. Bedsole Foundation, Ben May Charitable Trust and individual donors.
