This process involves multi-physics, including thermal, structural, andmaterials. To improve students’ learning of the “additive” concept, we let them touch the “manufacturing”process, by using “Lego bricks” to simulate how a part in being built. Students are grouped intoteam, each team is allocated 400 lego blocks, as shown in Figure 3. In this lab activity, studentsneed to use lego to build a cone layer by layer.

transfer KSAs from one module to another, as there are many issues leftunanswered. As mentioned above, having the students consciously transfer what they knowfrom prior modules could academically challenge them more than usual; Any intervention ofa similar nature might face the same problem. A student having an improved attitude totransfer could find it harder to transfer what they know, thus creating more barriers. Thebalance between these two elements is a topic that is without a doubt important and needs tobe explored further. Ultimately, this intervention makes for a good starting point to increasethe transfer of learning behaviours in engineering students.Future Directions (Work-in-Progress)Moving forward, this research plans to conduct

These results are presented in the box plots ofFigure 7. Additional problems reported by experts include unfamiliarity and non-compliancewith building codes or city ordinances, high cost of materials, health and safety concerns forimplementers, lack of economic resources, insufficient planning, and lack of
