瑞安·霍奇
2024年6月麦金利奖得主
瑞安·霍奇自2018年以来一直在澳门金沙线上赌博官网工作. 他的工业和艺术制作经验, work ethic and strong desire to support student learning has made him one of the most valuable resources on campus. 作为CSI创客空间的机械车间技术员, he was hired to help change the culture of design/prototyping/fabrication from a transactional to a transformative and holistic approach. Instead of students giving their drawings to a technician to fabricate or outsourcing to a company to manufacture, they are instead provided with a high-impact educational experience to visualize a design from conception to fabrication—and Hodge has been pivotal in developing this culture. 当他开始工作时, 霍奇立即拥有了这家店, transforming it into a more open and inviting space for students. 这么多年来, he has made sure to stay current with the new fabrication equipment and software so that the makerspace can evolve as future technology becomes available.
霍奇学院培养学生, 制作教育视频, 并为设计项目提供建议和策略. He co-teaches engineering science courses and is the sole instructor for a course he developed entirely on his own to provide opportunities for students to learn and use some of the high-end fabrication equipment.
He continues to work toward his ultimate goal of the makerspace being decentralized and community driven. A nominator wrote, “Ryan emphasizes the value of peer-to-peer learning. He has been especially aware that representation of the student workers is important so others can see themselves in the space, making it less intimidating and students have a greater sense of belonging. Ryan is continually thinking of ways to lower barriers for students, 尤其是在非stem领域, 进入空间.”
