to develop theirindependent design projects and create prototypes of the products they are working tocommercialize.Collectively this set of factors has increased student desires to access technology that supportshands-on work within and beyond the curriculum. Combined with these factors, the MakerMovement has also influenced engineering design education and, in some cases, accelerated aculture shift on college campuses. That culture is one that promotes hands-on learning, is open Page 26.138.4to new ideas, welcomes diversity within problem-solving teams, shares techniques and results,values teamwork, and is multi-disciplinary.

Eventually the Institute of Incorporated Engineers (IIE) was founded whichbrought electrical, electronic and mechanical engineering technician institutions under one umbrella[9] 2. Subsequently the IIE merged with the Institution of Electrical Engineers to form theInstitution of Engineering and Technology (IET). It embraced technicians and technologists underthe same umbrella in several ways similar to the way American IEEE embraces graduates with fouryear engineering degrees and those with degrees in technology. Similar politics have played out inteaching. In the UK the Office of National Statistics categorized the occupational status of teachingas a profession. In the
