These questions rated their knowledge at the beginning of semester.Additionally, some qualitative questions were asked. These questions were graded by using theevaluator’s template and an established scale. These responses established the quantitativebaseline of students’ knowledge at the beginning of the course. Step 2 took place at theconclusion of the semester. Students were asked the same questions as in Step 1. The questionsdealt with topics such as their understanding product and process development, design formanufacturing and assembly, writing, presentation, and project management skills. In both stepsa

Generally, the clearer and morespecific an instructor can be with feedback, the better the results for students. Students alsobenefit from peer reactions and should be encouraged to take responsibility for their ownlearning (i.e., taught to self-evaluate). Providing accurate feedback and helping students totake charge of learning can stimulate healthy minds.

They also appreciate the differences between this lab and atypical engineering experimental lab. Some students are uncomfortable crawling around themachines at first, and others are not as adept at using a digital voltmeter as their peers. They doassist each other, as limited group work is permitted in the lab, and much confidence is gained inlittle time. Students are also typically enthused when seeing a machine do exactly what theyprogram it to do, and for many students it sinks in quickly that the machine software will not fixtheir faulty logic for them.

And if education is about the ‘lighting of a flame not the filling of a pail’—weshould be putting the tools of discovery, invention and fabrication at the fingertips of everychild—inside and outside of the classroom.”The maker culture typically emphasizes “informal, networked, peer-led, and shared learningmotivated by fun and self-fulfillment.” [2] It has grown up outside of formal learning structures,but many educational institutions are now actively seeking ways to adopt this culture
