the attrition rate in engineering is increasingly higher [1,2]. To combat this, peertutoring and supplemental instruction are widely used techniques to help students succeed inchallenging courses in universities [3-5]. Furthermore, peer tutoring has shown to improveacademic outcomes such as achieving higher GPAs, higher retention rates, and improvingstudent engagement [6-9]. However, as observed by several researchers, the teacher-student andstudent-student interactions involved with instruction are complex phenomena that can befurthered complicated by innovative teaching methods like flipped-classrooms or collaborativelearning [10-12].In the current LEAP model students that have declared an engineering discipline as their majorare enrolled

The affinity house was rebranded the “iTEC LLC” for Innovations ThroughEngineering and Computing. The iTEC LLC activities are intended for students living in theiTEC LLC but available and advertised to all engineering/CS freshman students. Activitiesconsist of professional development sessions, nightly mentoring/tutoring in the iTEC LLCdormitory, and community building activities. Specific activities have included a guest lectureby Henry Petroski (Professor at Duke University and author of numerous engineering and designrelated books including “To Engineer is Human”), tours of local construction sites andengineering/CS

Current ProgressCurricular Change in a Core Curriculum –Our approach to curricular changes centers on meaningful, consequential learning in nine corestudio courses. In this approach, we seek to position students in the role of engineers where theyrecognize core foundational principles as conceptual tools that enable their work [5]. We drawupon Engle and Conant's framework [6] of productive
partnerships, employment of effectivemarketing strategies, a website for the makerspace, organization of a base of both volunteer andpart-time student workers and the establishment of a Bobcat Made twitter account, and a widerange of open-use makerspace hours.This poster and paper will further describe the key recommendations developed by the researchteam and how they were implemented at Bobcat MadeIntroductionThe drive to introduce a collaborative and innovative environment for students to freely createand learn has given rise lately to an influx of university makerspaces. These spaces arecharacterized by the presence of prototyping equipment, such as 3-D printers and laser cutters,woodworking tools, classic machining equipment, and basic hand tools
