Education has undergone significant transformations in recent decades, primarily driven by technological advancements and the need to prepare students for a constantly changing world. In this context, Maker Spaces emerge as an innovative approach that promotes active and collaborative learning. The main objective of this study is to identify and analyze innovative practices related to the creation of Maker Spaces as an active and collaborative pedagogical tool. Utilizing Content Analysis, the methodology will follow distinct stages that include problem definition, sample selection, and systematic analysis of data collected from scientific articles. The research will focus on freely available and relevant publications, ensuring the quality of the sources. The results will discuss trends and patterns in the use of Maker Spaces, contributing to a deeper understanding of their impact on education and promoting reflections on active and collaborative learning. The implementation of active and collaborative methodologies in educational environments reveals the importance of adopting approaches that foster meaningful learning, where student engagement in their own learning process not only increases motivation but also facilitates deeper knowledge absorption.
