Environmental characteristics. Quality and availability of tools – One of the most readily apparent features of the maker movement is the celebration and use of new and affordable digital tools. As these tools provide new ways of interacting with physical materials, they also offer new opportunities for learning so they are seen as enabler for the movement. Tools, like 3D printers or CNC xxxxx, are all based on the same principle, using software to help guide the movements of a machine tool. These could have a huge impact in organizations and lead to a new industrial revolution. The question to be addressed with the empirical investigation is: “how these tools can improve productivity and pleasure to work of workers within the paradigm of Industry 4.0?” (Xxxxxxxx 2012; Xxxxxx 2015). • Connected facilities – Makers, rather than just be isolated, are stitched together in the larger maker movement through several events (like maker xxxxxx hosted locally, nationally, and internationally), periodical subscriptions like Make magazine, online communities like xxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx or XXX.xxx, while maker adherents can connect through non-profit organizations like Maker Education. In this way knowledge is shared online and through social networks. The question to be addressed with the empirical investigation is: “how translating this characteristic (providing an online community within organization’s facilities) in an organizational context could improve communication and productivity at plant levels?” (Xxxxxxx 2013). • Gamification – The maker movement leverages on online communities that extend offline collaboration and provide spaces of collaboration and knowledge sharing. User participation in an online innovation community seems to be fostered by game elements that relate to the gamification concept. Gamification in an organizational context could be a disruptive innovation, leading sharing platforms to take place, with the aim to motivate people through the use of game elements and dynamics in nongame contexts. Game design elements refer to game design principles, game mechanics and game dynamics, storytelling and other aspects typically incorporated into games. The question to be addressed with the empirical investigation is: “how gamification mechanisms, if adopted, can improve the knowledge sharing, motivation and participation in an organization’s online community?” (Xxxxxxxxxx 2015). • Openness – Closeness represents a typical trait of workers’ behaviour. Vice versa, sharing ideas, proje...
