Lord et al. argue that the ecosystem approachoffers insights into contextual factors such as multiple influential actors, gatekeepers, powerrelations, tacit knowledge, knowledge transmission, and disciplinary cultures. Much like thispaper, we plan to apply network analysis techniques to makerspaces to provide richer insights.A survey measuring student participation in makerspaces and students’ self-efficacy for designrelated tasks [23] was deployed at Georgia Tech.

During the last two decades substantial efforthas been expended towards reconciling developing students with what can be broadly defined asSTEM identities. Considerable recent research broadly on STEM identities [e.g. 3-21], includingseparate considerations of science, engineering and math identities, has focused on the identitiesof groups and intersectionalities underrepresented in STEM disciplines and careers. But, someresearch also suggests that merely inserting a STEM label, e.g. science or scientist, into adiscussion unleashes implicit biases of gender, race and ethnicity in middle school children [14].Surveys to assess self-efficacy and

, were factored intothe statistics. [4] GPA was a greater predictor of retention and eventual graduation for malestudents than female students. Meanwhile, moderate to high levels of achievement increasedlevels of confidence in females but accentuated female students’ social discomfort as a minority,making self-doubt and social discomfort better predictors of graduation rate for females thanGPA. This trend was valid when women were both a numerical minority in classes and werestereotyped, as women often are in engineering programs. [4]The existing literature suggests that factors other than just GPA impact a female student’sdecision to remain in and eventually graduate from an engineering program. For example, self-efficacy, or a specified level

Self-efficacy refers to anindividual’s belief and confidence about his or her ability “to organize and execute courses ofaction required to attain designated types of performances” [44]. Consequently, innovationself-efficacy does not measure realized behaviors but only one’s belief in the ability toperform these. Since EMS 1.0 was exclusively distributed to undergraduate engineeringstudents, actual behaviors as employees could not be determined.
