Thus, makerspaces can be used to increase students’ability to apply STEM knowledge, conduct experiments, analyze the outcomes of thoseexperiments, work within constraints, work in teams, understand engineering as service tosociety, and understand their professional and ethical responsibilities.

Broadly, studies of student engagement have oftenexamined relationships between a student’s educational experiences and the outcomes of interest,finding that, in general, higher engagement was linked to gains in outcomes such as learning andpersistence [2], [3]. In particular, engagement in co-curricular settings, or experiences outside theclassroom, has been linked to the development of several technical and professional outcomesfor engineering students such as leadership, ethical decision making, teamwork, andcommunication [4]–[9]. Beyond those outcomes, co-curricular engagement has also been linkedto outcomes such as self-efficacy and a sense of belonging, which can improve retention andpersistence in engineering

Participants were then randomly assigned to one of three groups: no lab,regular lab, and TrussVR© lab.
