Repair Advocates in the Classroom

This resource is for both Educators and Repair Advocates.

Nimble Repair’s Kimberley Schroder and a community volunteer teaching lamp repair in a week-long in-class repair until.

A consistently successful model for bringing teaching about repair into schools combines classroom instruction with school-hosted community repair events. This model harnesses the energy and resources of community repair event volunteers to advance educators’ objectives, and uses the openings offered by the classroom to advance repair advocates’ objectives. This approach is accomplished effectively through pairing in-class instruction about repair with an event owned and led by educators, with both instruction and event supported by community repair advocates.

This resource is about in-class instruction supported by repair advocates.
