Our results show that students show great enthusiasm for 3D printingtechnologies and through years of use they develop expertise.A new engineering design culture has emerged. It revolves around the 3D printing lab whichbecame a crucial element in required courses, special projects, independent studies, senior projectdesign courses, master thesis research, as well as, events supported by student sections ofengineering societies (IEEE and IIE), and community events.

Though the United States is in a demographic shift with an increasingpopulation of ethnic minorities, they remain heavily underrepresented in the science andengineering fields2. In order to decrease this gap within the growing population, the countrywould need to increase the number of underrepresented students pursuing engineering by three-fold1. Researchers suggest that one way to meet this demand and increase the pipeline of womenand minorities is to focus on K-12 Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM)preparatory programs2. In fact, Arizona, the setting for this research study, has a large Latinxpopulation (30%) and offers an opportunity to

as these and present solutions for such challenges through acombination of technology and approach to teaching.1. introductionA primary goal of engineering education is to provide students with requisite technicalgrounding along with practice and experience in the design and evaluation of real andpractical systems. This goal becomes increasingly difficult with the expanding body ofknowledge, integration of concepts across disciplines, and complexity of design toolsneeded in engineering industries.1 While an expert/apprentice model of education maybe more fitting to preparing engineers for professional practice, traditional instructionmodels include in-person lectures covering fundamental technical concepts with thebulk of practice and

Other mindsets that frequently appear among engineers are “technological optimism”(Krier and Gillette, 1985), in which human progress is uncritically associated with technologicalinnovation, “technological neutrality” which posits that technology is value-free, and that valuesonly arise based on decisions of the users of the technology (Papadopoulos and Nettleship,2020).
