Teacher Training in making through the co-design of learning environments.

The paper presents the preliminary results of a design-based research (DBR) about learning environments for teacher training in maker-centred education. The research has two main goals. The first one is to define principles for the design of learning environments for in-service teachers in maker-centred education. The second goal is to explore and understand the educational needs detected among  the stakeholders during the training. After defining a theoretical framework based on the concepts of Learning Design, maker-centred education and Teacher Design Research, we present the development of a generalised teaching model by reconstructing the process of decision making. Finally we present a set of educational needs detected during the four implementations.
