Today we welcomed Secretary of State for Education @bphillipsonMP to @AMRCtraining on her first official university visit. The Secretary of State met our incredible apprentices, their employers and learnt how we are providing skills that businesses need now and for the future.

The iForge is just one of many projects that benefit from the support of alumni and friends. To everyone who donates and volunteers their time to Sheffield students, thank you! 💜

Comments like: “I went rogue and made a TikTok about our class trip to the @iForgeUoS, I hope that’s OK” are *chef’s kiss* 100% what brings me joy about our amazing #MADLCE cohort at @EducationSheff

The next in our #MADLCE student blogs on our visit to @iForgeUoS Yutong 'Susu' Ma considers whether engagement with makerspaces can, or should, be part of every student's experience. What are the barriers? Who are these spaces 'for'?

ICYMI: The first in our #MADLCE @iForgeUoS blog series. David Evers employs Lingard et al.'s (2003) 'productive pedagogies' model to evaluate the nature of learning in a makerspace: "creations hold value beyond school work".

Last month @SheffieldUni’s Alumni Foundation awarded almost £40,000 in grants to student clubs and societies. From supporting a student-led ‘Makerspace’ @iForgeUoS to running a musical from start to finish in only 24 hours, we’re so impressed with everything students get up to.

Thanks so much to @BrandonOCo and @iForger_Pete It's always such a pleasure to work with @iForgeUoS and to introduce our @EducationSheff students to the space. They didn't want to leave!

Hey @Ultimaker @UltimakerGB we seem to have a negative machine on time for our 5 year old Ultimaker 2 extended(s) 🤔
Bonus points if you can guess how many prints these workhorses have handled!

Thanks to you, our students are achieving extraordinary things. Such as those involved in @Sunride_UoS - a student group who design and build rockets. Their recent success at a national rocketry competition proves just how amazing the @iForgeUoS is. #ShefWeekOfThanks [2/2]
