uses the theoretical stances for life-historyinterviewing [21] combined with focused, in-depth, interviewing rooted in phenomenology [22].This approach includes the participants engaging in three separate 90-minute interviews. In theseinterviews, the participants describe and reflect on their past and current experiences. This allowsparticipant experiences, in the specified domain (e.g., makerspaces, making activities), to beunderstood through the context of their lives and allows meaning to be distilled from experience[23]. Through the three-interview series, developed by Schuman [24], participants describe thecontext, articulate the details, and mull over the meaning of their experiences. A 90-minuteinterview structure is suggested to

the weekly meetings, the participantswere divided into groups of 4-5 where each group was issued several discussion prompts. Theinitial peer grouping of participants was more methodical with freshmen being equally pairedwith sophomores and juniors, or purely homogenous groups, while the later groupings of peerswere more organic in their formations, containing a mix of demographics. The individual groupswould report to the larger group at the mid-point of the sessions, where larger group discussionswould follow. The four program directors and graduate assistants also participated in thediscussions by sharing their viewpoints and knowledge.Outside-group journaling was used to encourage the participants to reflect on group discussions.A series

industry. Yet, key components of mentoring that havebeen identified in the literature are often unfamiliar at the level of practice. The intent ofmentoring is that mentees, in our case the engineering student, arrive at their own solutionsthrough a process of reflection facilitated by their mentor.In designing the mentoring trial, we used a five-factor mentoring framework, drawing on theeducation literature. 1. The first factor is building rapport. Rapport is at the heart of mentoring [18]. Rapport is when the student and their industry partner feel comfortable communicating. Mentors and students can build rapport by learning a little about the other; mentors can encourage rapport by being attentive to body language and adopting a

As people have emigrated from all parts of the world,cultural groups are represented in much different percentages than 10 years ago. Over the lastcentury much of the diversity evident in the early 1900’s has assimilated into what is referred toas a melting pot, constantly changing. However, universities do not reflect the type and level ofdiversity of the current population[2, 3]. Both of the engineering and engineering technologyprograms, despite higher levels of one underrepresented group or another, still has much higherlevels of white students.

The raters all noted the markedimprovement in the designs between the freshman and sophomore years, and this is borne out inthe data. By the time students become seniors, they have more experience programming, usingmore complicated three-dimensionally printed parts and have developed machine shop skills tocomplete even more sophisticated projects.
