is no meaning outside of a person’s perception. Weconstruct our understanding of the world through our own realities: “[K]nowledge refers toconceptual structures that epistemic agents, given the range of present experience withintheir tradition of thought and language, consider viable” (Von Glasersfeld, 1989, p. 124;italics in original). Thus, knowledge is contextual, contingent, and subject to interpretation.Constructivism informs the thematic analysis of this study by considering the statements ofthe research participant to be their own construction of what diversity means and how itimpacts education. During the analysis I made efforts to ensure the authentic voice of theparticipant.Constructivism also has implications for data analysis

A conceptualmodel differs from the formal structures of hypothesis testing in the sense that it is exploratory innature. That is, it looks to uncover any existing relationships between the considered variables,based either in theory or in empirical evidence, instead of testing the magnitude or direction ofhypothesized relationships 15. Our model proposes that students entering an engineering programmay already have certain levels of global competency, and that these potential differences arecritical in designing strategies and interventions at the college-level. In our model, these baselinelevels are influenced by

These statements seem toindicate that they had a clear plan for the problem in mind.

The data that is collected should be triangulated in somefashion for the results to be considered valid.

-efficacy is necessary.The target population for the use of the TESS is the K-12 teachers in the United States. However,the sample for this study consists of the teachers in fourteen states. Thus, the result of this studyhas limitation in generalizability to make inferences beyond the sample characteristics of thisstudy. In addition, the sample size of this study was marginal to conduct an EFA. Thus, theresults based on the EFA may not be fairly reliable representation of the factor structure of theTESS. Thus, a CFA will warrant finalization of the items and factor structure of the TESS.Therefore, a confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) is planned to be applied with a new data setfrom over 200 teachers.

We propose a mechanism to increase and focus creativeenergy specifically for scientists and engineers. Despite their aversion to creative energy,scientists and engineers do understand the sampling of other variable spaces with variousalgorithms. For centuries, scientists and engineers have understood how to manipulate thermalenergy to efficiently move through the state space of both ancient and modern materials

Certain aspects, such as funding, can include multiple approaches, such aslooking at the overall revenue for space (quantitative) while also considering the restrictions onusage that funding may have (qualitative). For example, makerspace funded through State fundsor Govt. sources cannot be utilized to benefit a specific for-profit private company ororganization directly. Hence, the ability of tangible assets to impact a specific community alsodepends on elements that govern the continuity of the space.When looking at a makerspace without its physical assets, all that remains are the people makingthe space function.
