Filling the Gap: Philosophical Foundations of the Maker Movement Thomas Ask Professor of Industrial and Human Factors Design Pennsylvania College of TechnologyAbstractThe maker movement exploits a gap in what Kuhn refers to as “normal science”. The makermovement promotes experimentation and whimsy. It equally embraces old and new materialsand technology in pursuing the maker’s vision of the completed object. Making also fitslogically into the Kolb Cycle of experiential learning with its routing through episodes of feeling,watching, thinking and doing. Making typically provides immediate visceral feedback on adesign’s performance which produces tacit

It went on to speculate that the overall number of women engineers inacademe were unlikely to change in the near future. Why is this the case? Are women engineersnot choosing to pursue academic posts? Are those that do not being retained? If so, why?
