, performance measures, 3D printingIntroductionTechnological advances have shifted the popularity of 3D printing across industries, fromautomotive and aerospace to healthcare and construction. This versatile technology can createobjects from various materials and is valuable for prototyping and manufacturing. However,learning 3D printing in real-life settings consumes resources and poses risks like machine failureand operator injury. To develop a safer training platform and conserve resources, the HumanFactors (HF) and Sustainable and Intelligent Manufacturing (SIGMA) labs of the Department ofIndustrial, Manufacturing, and Systems Engineering at The University of Texas at Arlingtoncreated a virtual 3D printer lab. This virtual lab, similar to the

Test AnxietyAbstract Test anxiety is a prevalent psychological issue among higher-education students,particularly those seeking degrees in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, andMathematics) [1]. Test anxiety is an adverse emotional reaction when faced with a testingcircumstance or comparable evaluative atmosphere. Numerous studies on the impact of testanxiety on STEM students' academic performance have been undertaken. Understanding thecomplex link between test anxiety and academic achievement is critical for developing evidence-based solutions to help students succeed in STEM fields. Despite substantial research on collegestudents' test anxiety, there are major gaps in the literature, particularly in the context ofengineering
