The survey conducted seeks to furtheradd to the literature on university makerspace promising practices, and gain more information onthe specific university-level (student retention, diversity and access) and student-centered(student performance, engagement, and grades) impacts that university makerspaces have onengineering and engineering technology education.MethodologyIn the spring of 2016, the American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE) distributed anonline survey (see Appendix) to engineering deans (ED) and engineering technology deans anddepartment chairs (ETDC). The survey was designed by ASEE’s Assessment, Evaluation andInstitutional Research (AEIR) department. The survey consisted primarily of a series of

The course capstone project is an eight week design challenge thatrequires students to collaborate with a social agency on developing solutions to currentsocial issues in Calgary and around the world.The topic of this paper centers on the potential for simultaneous and multiple levellearning events by placing design and communication skill development in the social andcultural arena. At the Schulich School of Engineering, the first year design andcommunication course partners with local and international agencies that welcome theopportunity to benefit from the creative abilities of over 700 students collaborating in 200teams and to participate in the creation of engineers who are able to see the broad societaland cultural

university-wide demographics) represented in STEM majors. Next, the research project focused on retention theories to guide the design of interventionmeasures. While several theories of retention have emerged over the last few decades, two havedominated the theory and practice of retention: 1. Tinto’s academic and social integration model 8, 9, 10 and 2. Astin’s involvement model 11, 12In a nutshell, Tinto and Astin suggest that retention and persistence to graduation occurs whenstudents successfully integrate into the institution academically and socially and when students areinvolved and connected. Involvement refers to both formal academic or intellectual pursuits aswell as co-curricular activities. Additionally, Bandura 13 ties the

inAssistive Technology and Engineering (ELeVATE).Students are active participants and innovators in projects which address real-world problemswith systems-level engineering efforts, serving as a natural attractor to the discipline. Facilitatingthe programs collaboratively is in itself a best practice; it allows for an enhanced cohort, peer-to-peer mentoring, and maximization of resources for a sustainable training program designed toincrease the retention and promotion of underrepresented undergraduates in STEM disciplines.Though ELeVATE will only begin in the summer of 2011, its foundations are deep rooted in thesuccess of QoLT’s REU program which has advanced underrepresented students through theSTEM pipeline and delivered a promising model

My research team Technical Vocational Education Training (TVET) focused on examining the technical education system that is seen as a catalyst for the country’s ambition to be an international leader in the emerging green economy. My doctoral research explores the similarities and differences of physical and virtual place making, and the extent to which the approach may impact the learning experience for students and/or the shape of online learning spaces in
