There are basically three forms of maker training. One is experiential training. The second is literacy training. The third is platform education. This paper will discuss the characteristics, advantages and disadvantages of these three forms in depth to help readers better understand maker education.

Experience training

Experiential science and technology production classes and magical science and technology museum trips have ignited young people's strong curiosity about natural science and applied science. The effect and function of this experiential training is obvious, but the disadvantage is that most of the experience stays in the stage of "listening and speaking" or "imitating".

Literacy cultivation

Curriculum is an important part of education and teaching. On the basis of experiential training, educators began to pay attention to establishing a long-term mechanism for teenagers' interest in science and technology, and make it coherent through courses. This method pays more attention to the cultivation of literacy and supplements and strengthens innovation as a necessary product of personal literacy.

Platform education

Maker education has entered the stage of platform education. If students are in a very independent and open space, supplemented by technical support and tutor support, they can better stimulate students' interest, cultivate their creativity and application ability, and give full play to their creativity. In addition, this process can also cultivate students' teamwork and problem-solving ability.
