The goals of thisstudy were to determine student perceptions of the course materials and to compare studentperformance to a previous course offering using a traditional textbook.Pedagogical Approach/MethodologyThe focus of this project is an undergraduate 3-credit-hour heat and mass transfer course. It is arequired course in the mechanical engineering curriculum and requires a fluid mechanics courseas a prerequisite. The course had previously been offered twice in a blended format by the sameinstructor [12]. In the revised Spring 2020 course using OER and other no-cost digital materials,the same course objectives and a similar module structure were used as in previous

ininternationalization of higher education by interviewing 16 faculty and researchers atuniversities. The findings suggested four characteristics of faculty and researchers that cansignificantly influence the internationalization of higher education - international academicexperience, participation in international collaboration projects or networks, international co-authorship, and experience in international publications [8]. Besides these personal factors, thereare also some external barriers that prevent faculty from engaging in internationalization work,for instance, not taking into account faculty international services or contribution for the tenureor promotion, lack of financial incentives, and many competing demands on faculty’s time andworkload [9

In future semesters, we will be gradually adding more courses that are integratedwith surveying RL problems (Table 2), increasing the impact of this project. We expect to addRL problems to one course each semester. In addition, in the future we plan to draw RLproblems from other engineering disciplines such as Civil Engineering, increasing the variety ofRL problems and providing a diverse experience to students. For instance, a very common civilengineering problem is to have a site surveyed and then the total impervious area is calculatedfor a storm-water management plan.

While the participants had a wide rangeof perceptions, these negative themes point to critical concerns in makerspaces.One salient negative theme that participants experienced was that male students would oftendoubt their competency or attempt to dominate their project. While these women may interjectand attempt to assert their knowledge, the men would disregard them and sometimes even takeover their work.For instance, Betty, a fourth-year mechanical engineering student, described multiple instancesin which different male makers
