Remote Students - AgreementRemote Students - Agreement • October 7th, 2021
It is stated that Fab Academy Global Coordination advices against taking the course remotely, without a Local Instructor present in an Fab Lab that has not passed the assessment process to become an Active Node. Full requirements here: http://fabacademy.org/nodes/ . Beyond the technical skills, Fab Academy has a unique structure and dynamics that makes it particularly challenging to follow at a distance and alone. Fab Academy normally involves considerable independent study but strongly relies on the support of a readily available local instructor and a cohort of Fab Academy students working together in the same Lab. Remote Fab Academy students may not inherently have ready access to some of these resources. Because of this, remote students will need to be more self-driven, more self-sufficient, more resourceful and plan ahead more.
