Abstract
  • This study describes the perceptions of students who have attended makerspace workshops at the Kenan Science Library Makerspace at UNC-Chapel Hill. Interviews were conducted with undergraduate students to determine the instructional and technological impact of the makerspace. A group of five undergraduates who had attended a library session were interviewed. Instruction in the Kenan Science Library Makerspace covers emerging technologies such as 3D printing, 3D scanning, Introduction to Arduino, and Introduction to Tinkercad. The makerspace and its instruction sessions was found to be beneficial to students, increasing their knowledge of emerging technologies.
