Learning Community Innovation Zone (LCIZ)
The Learning Community Innovation Zone (LCIZ) held three additional maker workshops in November; Creative Strategies with Legos, LED-Lit Keycahins with the Learning Community Ambassadors, and a Google Cardboard activity.

If you would like to take advantage of the LCIZ open hours (Monday-Friday 12-5 p.m.) this Fall semester, please be sure that you complete the safety training, which can be found on HuskyCT.
