学术创客空间在国内外越来越受欢迎,但关于学生如何受到影响的实证数据有限。为了让学生参与到这些空间中来,一些课程要求将空间用于某些设计课程(如本文所研究的课程),而其他学校则将空间的使用作为学生的可选福利。这就引出了几个问题:这些空间对学生产生了什么影响,什么样的学生选择参与创客空间的使用,是什么因素驱使学生最初和持续地参与创客空间,以及参与对设计技能的发展有什么影响。为了更好地理解参与学术创客空间的影响,在过去的四年里,对三所不同大学的学生进行了一项纵向研究。数据是通过调查和收集GPA和留校数据从学生中收集的。学生们在各自的项目中都被跟踪,以观察参与程度的变化与保留和工程设计自我效能等因素的变化之间的关系。本文概述了整个研究,并介绍了在每个项目过程中自愿参与学术创客空间的趋势,以及这些趋势如何与其他测量因素相关联。
Academic makerspaces continue to grow in popularity nationally and internationally, but the empirical data of how students are impacted is limited. To engage students in these spaces, some curricula require the use of the space for certain design courses (such as the program studied herein), while other schools have kept space use as an optional perk for students. This leads to several questions about what impacts these spaces are making on the students, what kind of students are choosing to partake in makerspaces use, what factors drive students to initially and continually participate in makerspaces, and what is the impact that involvement has on the development of design skills. In an effort to better understand the impact of involvement in academic makerspaces, a longitudinal study on students at three different universities has been carried out over the last four years. Data were collected from students through the use of surveys and collection of GPA and retention data. Students were tracked throughout their respective programs to observe how changes in involvement correlated to changes in factors such as retention and engineering design self-efficacy. This paper gives an overview of the entire study and presents results including trends in voluntary involvement in academic makerspaces over the course of each program and how these trends correlate to other measured factors.
