As data is collected, ABET has an opportunity to develop means for sharing both descriptive and evaluative data to the broader engineering higher education community. If accessible this data can provide important benchmarking and best practices guideposts, and improve the learning environments of tomorrow’s engineering graduatesA Pilot Case with Industrial Engineering and Engineering Economy Data To illustrate the proposed mode and potential impact on the SSR, self study reports

Research has shown Makerspaces as sources of multidisciplinarylearning, a blending of communities of practice with formal learning, and finally that the depthof learning is in the making. While the research points to the values of making in general, andspecifically making in museum makerspaces, there seems to be little research on family making,and how museums can encourage family making. This research hopes to bridge both these gapsby studying the importance of family making and its relevance in children's museums.Data has been collected over the last 3 years from the New York and Bay Area flagship MakerFaires with sets of interviews with approximately 32 Young Makers and the parents of YoungMakers.
