. Referred to as higher educationmakerspaces and academic makerspaces, these facilities have been established at manyinstitutions. This trend has been prompted by developments in several areas, including calls fromindustry for more practical skills in engineering graduates as well as increased access to andsupport for digital manufacturing [1, 2].Higher education makerspaces combine elements of traditional machine shops (such as handtools, portable power tools, and standing machinery) with modern tools for design andfabrication (such as computer aided design software and laser cutters). In addition to the toolsand equipment, higher education makerspaces also promote collaboration and peer-to-peerlearning. These elements help develop a sense of

As a result, there has beena need to introduce Qatari youth to new notions of the diverse range of engineering disciplinesand to highlight their significance

It is expected that the combination of subjects offered, new teachingmethodologies and the assessment methods help students to develop those skills to becompetitive in the local and international job markets.The new senior secondary curriculum which is more diversified and broad, breaks the barrierof traditional arts and science streaming.

Numerous innovations have made it easier for teachers to incorporatehands-on lab activities into their curricula, including commercially available student lab kits,virtual labs [2], and maker space technology [3]. However, these innovations are often expensiveand inaccessible in lower-income communities.In addition to adapting existing technologies from developed to developing contexts, we need tofind novel approaches to incorporate hands-on activities into global engineering

The assessment, however, has novalue without student’s actual learning of the subject area. So a well-designed lesson plan and awell-developed series of problems is actually the foundation of the assessment. Assignmentsmust be supplemented by short and focused lectures. The assignment must be designed so thatthe students must spend some time outside the class working in teams. The other maincomponent is individual student’s preparation before coming to the class

In other words, the exammethods should fit the learning objectives of the particular course or program, which also meansthat the examination method influences what is measured and noticed. Furthermore, a futureexam is a well-documented factor in the students’ motivation for the course, and it influenceswhat the students learn [2,3]. It is, therefore, vital, that the exam method is considered carefullyin order to support the teaching methods and the intended learning objectives.This paper focuses on the assessment of engineering students’ collaborate project work and usesthe project supervisors' perceptions to understand how essential skills such as collaboration andcommunication can

To provide the best learning experience for our students and totake advantage of the MakerSpace (a new facility that was recently set up in SCUPI), the idea ofa SCUPI Derby, which was modeled after the well-known US Boy Scouts’ Pinewood Derby [1],was assigned to our students as the final project. What is different from the Pinewood Derby isthat the model car of our project would be made from 3D printing instead of elaborating on apinewood block. To prepare our students for this challenging task, SolidWorks has been used asthe main design tool.
