Abstract |
Academic makerspaces, such as Kent State’s Design Innovation Hub, are increasingly becoming popular as the world embraces technological innovation. As the world prioritizes teamwork, universities are embracing cross disciplinary collaboration between students of different majors and interests. Thirty universities, including Kent State University, and their academic makerspace programs have been thoroughly researched. Each academic makerspace program has been placed into one of three categories: College-Based, Multi-Unit, and Stand Alone. Based upon these makerspaces and the university's goal for the makerspace, the metrics that make a makerspace strategy successful will be determined.
