instructor,whether the students believed she was female or male), no difference in the student ratings of theinstructors was found. However, when SET results were grouped by perceived instructor gender(i.e. both the female and male instructors, when the students believed each was female), studentsrated the perceived male instructor as significantly better than the perceived female instructor.These findings support the idea that there is a real bias that exists among students in evaluatinginstructors, not simply a difference in the teaching styles or teaching effectiveness betweenfemale and male instructors.Another study performed a laboratory experiment where students were shown an identicallecture delivered by a stick figure with a gender-neutral

vibrational spectroscopy. Rohit has been at Illinois since as Assistant Professor (2005-2011), Associate Professor (2011-2012) and Professor (2012-). Rohit was the first assistant professor hired into the new Bioengineering department and played a key role in the development of its curriculum and activities. He later founded and serves as the coordinator of the Cancer Community@Illinois, which is slated to become the first technology-focused cancer center in the nation. Research in the Bhargava laboratories focuses on fundamental theory and simulation for vibrational spectroscopic imaging, developing new instrumentation c American Society for Engineering Education, 2017

. Additionally, educators now have access to an array of free and opensource 3D modeling tools. A low-cost entry point and the ability to rapidly create tangibleartifacts sets up 3D printing as a prime opportunity to promote an interest in engineering sciencesin schools.In our work, we set out to answer three research questions: 1) How can we use 3D printing toengage different underrepresented populations (young adults with intellectual disabilities andunderrepresented minorities) in STEM learning? 2) What are the benefits and challenges ofteaching 3D modeling and printing as it relates to the technology itself? and 3) What are thebenefits and challenges of teaching 3D modeling and printing as it relates to theseunderrepresented populations?We present
