Thegraduate experience can often be a lonely journey and the few tweets related to this topicencouraged new students to engage with others and to reach out for support. The two questionsrelated to seeking strategies for coping with isolation were met with supportive responses to seekopportunities to meet other diverse students.“Expectations from family” and “obligations to the community” generated one answer tweet inthe top tweets.

Since then, makerspaces have become increasinglycommon at colleges and universities around the world, as schools recognize the value of hands-onlearning experiences for students and the importance of fostering a culture of innovation andentrepreneurship. Today, makerspaces can be found at a wide range of institutions, from large researchuniversities to smaller liberal arts colleges.While some faculty members may be familiar with the equipment in makerspaces and have experienceusing it, many others may be less familiar or have little experience with the tools.

just getting the answer.Taking a cue from educational psychology [4], an approach to circumvent the negative impact ofsolution manuals is by changing problem features (examples include the format of the problemstatement, familiarity with the problem context, and whether the values provided are numeric orsymbolic). Sweller and colleagues ([5],[6], and [7]) have shown that one effective way toaccomplish this goal is to have students engage in open-ended problem solving rather thanattempt to reach a particular goal (for example, “calculate the value of as many variables as youcan ” versus “what is the final velocity of the car?”). As noted in these studies, such a techniquehas had success in high school courses in geometry and trigonometry.In the
