Not every makerspace needs to be a massive undertaking. Simple, low-cost learning spaces can support making technologies (e.g., 3D scanning, modeling, and printing). Join us in examining key factors (e.g., physical space) influencing their design, development, and support, as well as student perspectives on these spaces. Learn how increased awareness and access can foster innovation across campus.


Outcomes: Discuss key factors related to the development and implementation of learning spaces that support "making" *Identify guidelines for a successful makerspace *Increase innovations among student, faculty, and staff through "making" technologies
