This session explores how hands-on, play-based engagement with emerging technologies transforms passive users into confident, creative problem-solvers. Through an interactive “Learn by Play” experience, we’ll highlight the vital role of instructional support and intentional design in turning tech spaces into incubators for innovation. Whether you support a makerspace, esports lab, or emerging tech hub, this session will help you foster a mindset shift from using equipment to leveraging it for personal and professional growth.
