Market status of maker education development;
In the process of developing maker education in primary and secondary schools, Beijing and Shenzhen are the modes of synchronous development of off-campus purchasing services, and Shanghai mainly increases investment in scientific and technological innovation education on the basis of building theme maker laboratories.
Second-and third-tier cities such as Zhengzhou, Wuhan, Xi, Jinan, Qingdao and other cities are all pilots to increase the construction of maker education laboratories and curriculum integration.
Most parts of the country are still in the stage of local pilot and market observation, but judging from the stage of education reform, market development environment and social development trend, maker education projects are welcoming the golden age of development.
Maker education and STEM education have become the most concerned forces in the market, with huge market capacity, and education reform is indispensable. The overall off-campus science and technology education has changed from the traditional "three models, one electricity and one robot" education to the maker's off-campus education market.
At present, it is still in the initial stage of decentralized, groping and local pilot market, but it is developing rapidly. The speed and connotation of market development are closely related to the economic foundation of the city and the intensity of education reform, and it is still in the process of long-term adjustment and accumulation.
