Historically, practitioners have also used this model tosupport peer-to-peer learning, in which community members learn from and encourage eachother [2], in both teacher education [1] and technology use [3], two paramount components of acollaborative makerspace like the BeAM Makerspace. CoP research shows that peer-to-peerlearning paired with product-based work yields better knowledge retention and personalaccountability amongst users [2][4]. Eager to encourage these outcomes in its own staffmembers, the BeAM Makerspace designed CoPs that would incorporate adaptiveteaching-projects to improve both the collaboration between

continuouslygraduates engineers who know how to build amazing projects but have nearly no concept of howthese projects will change the societies they are built within. Thankfully, in recent times, this hasbeen changing. As the power of technology in our modern world has grown to be undeniable, sohas the need to properly design, build, and regulate it. Across the nation, engineering programshave adopted more rigorous forms of engineering ethics education by embedding it in capstonedesign courses, introduction to engineering courses, or even by establishing separate coursesentirely dedicated to ethics in the engineering field [1]. Currently, one of the dominant paradigms for teaching engineering ethics stems fromreal-world case study analysis. In 2018

They all offer benefits for their users that may include tools, equipment, and educationalresources. Educational resources offered in these makerspaces range from required training foruse of equipment to informative workshops. Through conversations with other universities, wehave found that it is very difficult for many makerspaces, previously including our own, tomaintain a system of informative workshops, inspiring the motivation behind this paper. Withmakerspaces connecting students, faculty, and staff together to bring their ideas into reality,connecting these makerspaces together to share resources and workshops will

In this latter role, we are tasked with guidingstudents through research endeavors and giving them an introduction to engineeringinvestigations. While in some instances this can be a straightforward task, there are times whenthe role of a mentor can be physically, mentally, and emotionally taxing. Some students have aharder time being able to grasp the research method or process, and it can lead to moredrawbacks than benefits to the project. But what of the instances outside of the laboratory?Certainly, our role as a mentor is to guide students and give them advice and mentorshipregarding their research endeavors.

The clustering coefficient is a measure ofthe overall connectedness of one’s network (how many of your friends know each other?), andcan be used to infer the overall interconnectedness of a student’s social network. Taken together,these analyses can describe the ways in which collaborative learning may shape a students’social networks and perceptions of social connectedness.The results of this study indicate that, in instances where students perceived that their instructorsimplemented collaborative learning more often, a student’s social network became more denselyinterconnected. Additionally, the number of friends a student chooses to work with is positivelycorrelated to how often said student works or studies in a

More recently, the practice of ungrading has become more prominent in thehumanities and social sciences and is slowly being adopted by engineering education. In coursesthat utilize ungrading, students are required to develop a portfolio of writing intensive or othertypes of projects in lieu of traditional assignments [2]. Students are expected to submit their workfor review, obtain feedback from the instructor, and implement that feedback over the course

Children learned about AI by listening to stories and picture books andreviewing specific vocabulary in the stories.

., 2014), it is important that every interaction establishes an inclusive community. Informalcommunity-building and relationships with faculty and staff help students develop a sense ofbelonging in college (Myers et al., 2015). Additionally, students should be encouraged tointegrate their outside lives with academics. Community involvement in research projects canhelp engage students in problem-solving (Loeser et al., 2021). This is important particularly forstudents who have a strong sense of cultural and community identity.

Future work will includequalitative data collection to explore details not revealed by quantitative methods. One limitationof using survey and quantitative methods in this context is the potential for self-report bias(Critchfield, 1994), which can lead to inaccurate data if participants do not accurately report theirexperiences. Another limitation is the Weidman Socialization of Doctoral Students survey, whichwas developed in 1989 and may not accurately reflect the current experiences of engineeringPh.D. students. Additionally, the survey primarily covers socialization factors and milestones,potentially missing other

While it is part of mostundergraduate curricula to impart fundamental knowledge, teach problem-solving skills, anddevelop critical thinking, as soon as one enters a graduate program, these are assumed. First-yeargraduate students are expected to use their technical expertise and independence inadvanced-level courses and projects/scientific research, alongside older graduate students, withlittle mentoring or training to ease this transition. As a result, most students struggle to
