In the recent ASEE conference Morocz et al.11 presented plans of measuring the impacts of a university makerspace “through engineeringdesign self-efficacy, retention in the engineering major; and idea generation ability".A study by the Maker Ed Open Portfolio Project 12 strengthens the promise of our proposal toemploy self-reflection to assess learning in Makerspaces. This work presents self-reporteddata by Makerspaces all over the United States about their alignment with nationaleducational initiatives. Most sites reported themselves as being aligned with STEM (94%)(Science, technology, engineering, and
