THE PURPOSE OF THIS PROJECT IS TO INTRODUCE A UNIQUE PROJECT TO THE LITTLE SINGER SCHOOL (SERVICE TO ALL MY RELATIONS, A BI-LINGUAL, BI-CULTURAL, OFF THE GRID, NAVAJO SCHOOL NEAR FLAGSTAFF. AZ. THIS SCHOOL IS 99% NAVAJO TO INNOVATIVE USE OF LEARNING TECHNOLOGIES, INSTRUCTIONAL APPROACHES, AND NEW SCIENCES TO PROMOTE ENTHUSIASM AND INTEREST IN NEW SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, ENGINEERING, THE ARTS, AND MATHEMATICS (STEAM) THROUGH A MAKERSPACE PEDAGOGY. THIS PROJECT WOULD SERVE AS A MODEL AND OUTREACH PROGRAM SERVING OTHER NAVAJO ORGANIZATIONS AND OTHER INDIGENOUS POPULATIONS. IN ADDITION, THIS PROGRAM WOULD SERVE TO CAPTURE PAST INDIGENOUS STORIES IN WHICH STUDENTS WOULD SERVE THE STEAM CAREER ROLE OF A JOURNALIST, ARTIST, SCIENTIST, OR ENGINEER TO EXPLORE TOPICS RELATED TO NASA S MULTISCALE MAGNETOSPHERE MISSION (MMS). THE STEAM MAKERSPACE PROJECT COULD SERVE AS A BRIDGE CONNECTING POPULATIONS WITH LITTLE TO NO EXPOSURE THE FABRICATION AND STEM PROGRAMS, INTRODUCING ENTIRE COMMUNITIES TO 21ST CENTURY SKILL SETS TO INCLUDE PROBLEM SOLVING, CRITICAL THINKING, AND SCIENTIFIC UNDERSTANDINGS TO REAL WORLD SCENARIOS AND EVENTS. THE STEAM MAKERSPACE PROJECT WOULD SERVE AS A MOBILE RESEARCH CENTER TO PROVIDE THE INTERNATIONAL ACADEMIC COMMUNITY WITH RESEARCH OPPORTUNITIES.
