andunstructured learning.Setting and MethodsThis paper presents four case studies of academic maker spaces. Three of the fourinstitutions are public, while one is private. The spaces have been open from three to fiveyears, and three are directly supported by or housed in the school of engineering, whilethe other one by the school’s IT department. All four makerspaces were previously opento users from across the entire university.In 2018, a community of practice was established between the case study locations and 6-8 other regional makerspaces, with members regularly meeting to share ideas andinitiatives [7]. This community continued to develop over 2019 with a yearly day-longmeeting and intermittent emails. In 2020, during the early days of the pandemic

discrimination in Chile remain evident, aswitnessed by international organizations' different world rankings and studies. According toeconomic theory, the current engineering focus continues to be project assessment, often withoutconsidering any social and environmental impact.According to [3], the social crisis in Chile in October 2019 demanded equality and finishedabuses, an apposition of a hierarchical society in which a group has greater power or status. Thisdemand is directly related to the social sustainability indicated by the SDGs. Given this context,there is already an approach to equality for students who participated in this study.METHODOLOGYThis research work evaluates the impact of problem-based learning (PBL) on sustainabilitycriteria for

However, because of the COVID-19 conditions theprogram was run virtually with a small group of teachers. The program was funded in February2020 and after mid-March 2020 the decision was made, after permission from NSF, to run theprogram using entirely online tools. Due to the solely online nature of this year’s program, onlinetools became necessary and a clear organizational strategy was required for coherence.

. It was designed as an outreach project for the Society ofWomen Engineers university organization. The goal was to expose middle and high schoolstudents to engineering, so they consider pursuing engineering in college.In 2008 EPIC evolved to both day and residential programs and was offered for three weeksserving 300 students. This gave out of state students the opportunity to participate. The cost of theresidential program was $1,400 for one week.Then, from 2017 to 2019, EPIC went to a full residential program as the demand for theresidential program increased and the day program decreased. EPIC again grew in size servingover 700 6th-12th grade students. Participants expanded to include out of state and out of thecountry students. The cost
