printing will be given to students enrolled in CHEG 4310 Polymer Science and Engineeringelective course. Students will build knowledge through actively making some artifacts. Theproject aims to teach students scaffolds' design and operation techniques and other creativemodels with various 3D printing platforms. The primary goal is to find the impact andeffectiveness of 3D printing on student interest, motivation, and engagement. The evaluation willbe carried out through pre- and post-surveys from the students.Elective Course: Introducing 3D PrintingPolymer Science and Engineering is a new elective course offered in Chemical Engineering.

deformation can be an obstacle to structural mechanicseducation and learning. Teaching structural mechanics is traditionally delivered by a primarylecture component usually complemented by structural laboratory demonstrations. While thelecture component covers the theoretical concepts and derivations, the laboratory demonstrationsare known to improve the students’ understanding of the concepts through observation andexperimentation. Students often work with line drawings of members with idealized loadings andboundary conditions, but struggle to understand the dimensional reduction of load path (i.e. 3Dcombined loading reduced to member force effects) within a multi-story building systems [1, 2].Other shortcomings in traditional modes of teaching
