due to this being, inlarge part, the first semester of their college careers), they were unencumbered by the idea offailure or resistance to improvisation in the act of creation. Some in this group reported aninterest in the arts, some with advanced experience with art in high school. While these aregeneralizations, it is interesting to consider how area of concentration and age/academicexperience affect the outcomes.A further aspect to consider is how teaching a course in two distinct classrooms alters thedynamic. In the studio art instructional space there are four tables, each with four chairs. Asstudents worked, they frequently discussed their projects with their neighbors. This culminated inone table actually designing all of their

In manyways, what educators are tasked with is providing students with models of the skills andcompetencies that will be required to continue self-education beyond the end of formalschooling. As educators, we need to provide the “spark”. However, as Mourtos[in 44] has pointedout, the main component of the ABET criteria 3i “…recognition of the need for… lifelonglearning” is not an aspect of the traditional cognitive domain usually focused on in highereducation. Rather, it belongs to the affective domain, not a skill that can easily be “taught” anddirectly assessed, but still vitally important. The second component of 3i “…an ability to engagein lifelong

coding of a subsample of transcripts[27,28]. After building the codebook, the remaining transcripts were coded with a subsample ofdata independently coded by both coders with an intercoder reliability score of 0.71. Thematicanalysis was performed in two rounds, starting with a review of the content in each codefollowed by a second reorganization into emergent themes, as presented below.We conclude this section by acknowledging our positionality as authors and active members,former students, and a former CA of the PRL. As authors, we come from different backgroundsand career paths and have pursued this study in an attempt to better understand and therebyimprove participation and access to the learning resources in makerspaces (e.g. the PRL

In this course, learningwas achieved at three levels: individual learning, team learning, and learning from each other inthe AME5740 community. This structure was systematically developed using the assignments.Initially, the

We identify some techniques forproviding enhanced coverage of these points, some basic ideas for handling individualmeasurements in the presence of group or team project scenarios, and an instrument that enablesintellectual property and innovation to be dealt with in the classroom. Coverage in each of thethree areas is directed toward both classroom experiences for the student directly related to thecourse content, and translation of those experiences into student capabilities that will be useful inan industrial/technological career. The intellectual property component of the paper includes anon-disclosure agreement (NDA) in both long and short

Designreviews may take place opportunistically at a student’s desk or at scheduled
