Studies of qualitative natureindicate that this structure can be associated with positive learning experiences, because it allowspeople to develop their technical and design knowledge, explore solutions to problems, anddevelop a working proficiency with tools and equipment used for creating and prototyping [14],[15]. In the current literature, however, there are few quantitative studies that provide large-scaleevidence of the impacts of makerspace in learning [2], [3], [16], potentially because there is noframework that enables such an assessment.To address this gap and create an instrument that effectively measures the learning

These modes are not all together distinct as will be seen by considering anexample. A course in fluid mechanics will present theory related to pumps and flow in pipes.Learning is often evaluated by analytical problems with one correct solution. On the other hand,a design project may use the same ideas in the service of creating a drinking-water system, or afire-fighting robot. Such projects have many possible solutions and involve criteria

Previous research indicates that students'engagement correlates directly with academic progress. This is especially relevant in theEngineering+ setting, where students are in the process of choosing their majors and planningtheir futures. Students take three courses on varying topics to explore their interests and practicefundamental engineering skills during their first year. Therefore, enhancing student engagementin these courses not only aids in a deeper understanding of the offered materials but alsofacilitates social interactions that can inform better decision-making

This additional structure willincrease the material needed to construct the building and affect the carbon footprint of thebuilding, specifically the embodied carbon.

This result suggests that project or assignment prompts might bepoorly written or overly verbose to the point that students struggle to even understand them.Additionally, considering this usage of GenAI tools does not register as one that might breakacademic integrity rules, students could be the most aware of it because they either understandthemselves or have been told by an instructor that this is an accepted way to use Gen AI forschool.We then asked users if they used

Indeed, no abstraction, tool, or symbol actually captures in its form the practices in the context of which it contributes to an experience of meaning.”Given the noted lack of attention to variability in engineering research [10] and education [11],we expected the student participant-researchers in this study to struggle to identify the presenceand relevance of variability in their engineering coursework.
