Movement’s ability to contribute to diversity and inclusionefforts in STEM? (2) In what ways are making communities addressing or attaining the goal ofincreasing access to the STEM fields?The Maker Movement continues to advance today as making activities take place incommunities, in K-12 schools and on college campuses. This literature review includes asummary of current practices and identification of areas in need of improvement. From this, mid-course correction suggestions are made.Background on Making, Maker Spaces and the Maker MovementThe terms ‘making,’ ‘maker space’ and ‘Maker Movement’ came into public consciousness inthe mid-2000s and are largely tied to the company, Make:, led by founder Dale Dougherty [1].Dougherty started Make: with

One of those studies found that in comparison to other regionsof the U.S., equipment/machinery was involved in a significantly greater number of accidents inmiddle Atlantic (mid-Atlantic) P-12 engineering education courses. That study also found thatmanufacturing and construction focused classes taught by mid-Atlantic P-12 engineeringeducators had a significantly higher rate of accidents than the same course taught in other U.S.regions. However, there was no significant difference in the number of accidents that

to face with online teaching, hybrid modelshave less coverage. A unique opportunity for direct comparison of online and hybrid modalitiespresented itself in fall 2020 at a large Mid-Atlantic university. The engineering college teaches ageneral education course on the History of Engineering that is open to all majors. The course wasdeveloped about eight years ago and has been taught each semester and in several summersessions ever since. There are no technical aspects to the course; it covers the history ofengineering from the ancients to today, with an term paper at the end of the course that asksstudents to research and discuss a topic about the future of engineering.In fall 2020 two sections of the course were taught by the same professor

The survey included basic demographicquestions (age, race, gender, major), transfer status, perception of transfer shock, and questionsregarding the participant’s social network. The social network questions asked the participant toname up to 10 of their closest friends at the university and answer demographic questions aboutthese friends (age, gender, major, and whether a friend is a transfer student). Participants thenidentified how they interacted with each friend and whether the friends they named knew oneanother in order to generate an ego network for each participant.Social network analysis was done using the software

One mid-sized private Midwesterninstitution only enrolls around 8 students per section with a total of 5 sections.  In terms of safety, the institutions show a wide variety of course outcomes and teachingpractices. A summary is shown in Table 1. Focusing on course outcomes, it is notable thatseveral institutions’ outcomes are vague regarding safety, while at least one institution onlymentions lab safety (vs. process safety), and one institution does not mention safety at all. As faras teaching practices, all the courses involve teaching safety to some extent, but the practicesvary from lab safety certifications to single lectures on process safety to qualitative risk analysisof the specific experiments being performed with no wider

students' path into STEM?Toward answering this question, this paper explores the lived experiences of a group of studentsenrolled in a non-disciplinary engineering program at a mid-Atlantic, primarily undergraduate,comprehensive, public university. For these students, we examine their described pathways intoengineering by identifying and defining the types of influential experiences on the constructs ofhighly structured activities to completely unstructured activities and those driven by certainforms of curiosity. Their pathways provide insight into the overlapping experiences of learningin formal educational settings as well informal settings such as the home. Defining theseactivities allows for a clearer understanding of what constitutes

However, more qualitative analysis is still needed to moreaccurately characterize the stressors graduate students face, and the coping mechanisms they useto mitigate the ill effects of stress.This paper seeks to answer the following research questions: (1) What elements of theengineering graduate student experience cause students stress?
