-world issues,and consistent iteration helps both “mitigate design fixation” and “reinforce[s]...adaptive andcreative thinking” (p. 2). University makerspaces serve as a central location for students topractice knowledge learned in the classroom, and hone their design skills.Antonucci-Durgan, et. al (2014), Dukart (2016), and Whitmer (2014) acknowledge academicmakerspaces as spaces where experiential education occurs. Two examples of experientiallearning opportunities are internships and cooperative learning (co-op) programs. Whileinternships and co-op programs are encouraged in engineering education settings, there are fewestablished opportunities of such opportunities at university makerspaces. There is evidence ofseveral university makerspace

The program directors and directors of student support services are working closely with 1095 to ensure she receives strong support.” Scholar 1103 stated, “The price of college has put an increased financial burden on my family and me. With four younger siblings and my father being disabled with a lung condition these burdens are quite significant. I have coped with these financial pressures by striving to reduce costs, taking out loans when needed, and doing work on

. Page 26.1091.3The Role of Building RelationshipsIn order to undertake challenging design and build projects with industry sponsors, a substantiallevel of trust must be established between the university and the sponsors. Such projects requirean understanding of the capabilities of the student teams on the part of the corporate sponsors, aswell as an understanding of the culture and expectations of their corporate partners by thestudents and faculty. This level of trust requires long term planning, development, and nurturing.The engineering programs as Grand Valley State University were launched at the request of localindustry in the 1980’s. The programs were designed by a team of faculty in collaboration withpracticing engineers from industry

The author ismore convinced now than ever, that classroom reformation, including deployment of activelearning strategies, would happen only if the institution mandates it!The Pros and Cons of the Lecture FormatWhen asked why he/she lectures, one faculty responded: “It is a tradition. It was part of mytraining, and seems to dwell in me and seems like what I should be doing. I feel guilty when Iam not lecturing” (13). This candid statement suggests one of the great dilemmas faced by allwho teach at the postsecondary
