A preliminary report of our successes and failureswas published a couple of years ago,2 and since then we have continued to modify andimprove the course by listening to student feedback and using more efficient coursestructure and management, as well as through cross-college collaborations. Briefly, thesechanges have resulted in a course that better addresses the Accreditation Board forEngineering and Technology (ABET) criteria and gets students to take a more active rolein their own learning.There are many well documented methodologies for improving student learning ofclassical physics, 3-6

One way to capture the affective domain is through reflection or journaling [14].Journaling can encourage self-evaluation, but even experts to struggle to capture accurate self-assessments [15]. In addition to the task of self-assessment, peer-assessment tools are effectivebecause learners have had a chance to observe others throughout the learning process andtherefore, can be more fair and accurate with judgements compared to teachers or experts [13].In addition, learners have the perception that peer-assessment processes are fairer than instructorassessment alone [13].

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.

Secondary school instructorshave a golden opportunity to approach engineering curriculum design with a student-centeredperspective that fosters engagement since many curricular resources for high school studentsmust be uniquely tailored for students with different levels of exposure to engineering.This paper describes the development of a biomedical engineering curriculum for high schoolstudents that integrates design thinking using the framework of student-centered

We investigate a current and successful program –the Software Factory approachwith existing undergraduates, and apply it to K-12 students. The goals of this exploratory casestudy were to counteract negative stereotypes by 1. Having K-12 students work in a team that resembled a small professional software development group, and 2.
