Invent to Learn: Making, Tinkering, and Engineering in the Classroom is a practical education book by Sylvia Libow Martinez and Gary Stager that argues for bringing maker-centered learning into K-12 classrooms, libraries, and makerspaces. Positioned at the intersection of progressive education, constructionism, project-based learning, and educational technology, the book explains why students learn deeply when they design, build, test, revise, and share meaningful artifacts. Rather than treating tools such as robotics, 3D printing, Arduino, Raspberry Pi, conductive materials, programming, and cardboard construction as isolated novelties, it frames them as materials for thinking, collaboration, and inquiry. The book is intended for educators, administrators, librarians, and facilitators who want both a philosophical rationale and practical guidance for making, tinkering, and engineering with students. Its central purpose is to show how classrooms can become environments where learners exercise agency, solve authentic problems, and connect science, mathematics, art, design, and computing through hands-on work.
