As Figure 7 shows, in Fall 2019, there was a slight increase in short-term clarityamong students in the course (next year, next two years), but a slight decrease in long-termclarity (through graduation, beyond graduation). Students enrolled in the course reported onaverage larger gains in clarity over their plans for the next year, pulling about “even” withstudents not enrolled in the course by the end of the semester. At the end of the semester, onaverage, students not enrolled in the course report more clarity for each time period. Thisdifference may be due to self-selection of students into ENGR 110, wherein students with lesscertainty over their future may be more likely to enroll in the course. This difference

Key themes identified through analysis of ethnographicinterviews are presented as well as our initial model illustrating how students use online learningto supplement in-person learning and making in makerspaces. In essence, for our engineeringstudents, makerspaces facilitate a hybrid learning environment. We believe that this onlinelearning model shows promise for transferability beyond making as well. In other words,whether it’s looking for a recipe for dinner tonight or learning how to weld a bike—we suspectthat the process may follow the model created (Figure 1
