When a teacher is an expert in a subject it is harder for them to understand the conceptual difficulties in the learners mind. Paraphrased from Eric Mazur

I'd like to propose a session for ASTC 2012 about the DIY movement and 
Maker Faires related to science centers. We'll be hosting our first 
Mini-Maker Faire next year, in collaboration with the Columbus Idea 
Foundry. I'd like to talk to others who have hosted these or are doing 
DIY -related programming. Anyone interested in co-presenting and/or 
sharing their experiences around this topic?
