Assessing Self-Guided Resources in the Library Makerspace

The purpose of this study is to understand how well the learning resources at UNC-Chapel Hill's Library Makerspace meet the needs of first-generation and international undergraduate students. The study will explore what resources are available, how they are designed to help students learn, and whether students feel these resources reflect their cultural values, learning styles, and goals. To do this, I will look closely at the learning materials, talk with students in a focus group, and test a new resource based on their feedback. The goal is to find ways to improve the Makerspace's self-guided learning tools so they better support students from diverse backgrounds. This research will help the Library Makerspace create a more welcoming and effective learning environment for all students.
