Fab Lab-based learning: an environment to promote Women and Leadership in Engineering Education

Laboratorios de Fabricación Digital (FabLab) y su implementación en educación básica. Una revisión sistemática

“…Para generar un verdadero impacto, estas oportunidades deben estar presentes en todas las escuelas y no sólo en las más privilegiadas (Blikstein y Worsley, 2016). Herrera et al (2021) mencionan que los FabLab son espacios propicios para la integración de mujeres con interés en áreas STEAM, potenciando oportunidades en diferentes áreas de la ingeniería y disciplinas afines.…”

Considering leadership in engineering education: A call to action for research and practice

“…Broadly surveying engineering education literature, we found that much of the current literature and foundational work in the field focuses on studying leadership perceptions, experiences, and programs for undergraduates (Kendall & Rottman, 2022;Handley et al, 2021;Handley et al, 2022;Knight & Novoselich, 2017;Wolfinbarger et al, 2021;Zafft et al, 2009;etc.). There was a smaller focus on the role of gender for leadership interventions (Herrera et al, 2022) and administrative experiences (Layne, 2010), with some international scholars positing that leadership in engineering education could support gender equity goals (Goh, 2011). Additionally, we found some literature pertaining to the founding of engineering education as a research discipline that focused on early leaders and pioneers within the field (Bjorklund & Colbeck, 2001;Allendoerfer et al, 2016).…”
