prevents a lengthy divergence into these the arena of arts based researchand design thinking, we briefly define them next. Class assignments were developed within adesign thinking framework of human-centered design developed by the global design firmIDEO (Ideo, 2015). We developed assignments--Projects and Provocations (more on thoselater) keeping in mind IDEO’s Mindset elements of Empathy, Iteration, Creative Confidence,Making, Embracing Ambiguity, and Learning from Failure. Course activities also incorporateddesign thinking concepts of Ideation and Implementation methods to evaluate research, defineproblems, establish audience/s, and develop solutions. In addition to design thinking methods,we were inspired by the methods of the emerging field

, ismore advantageous than traditional lecturing in improving student performance across the STEMfields and across all class sizes. This aligns well with the need in the engineering mechanicsclasses to engage student in qualitative judgement activities for active learning.Several studies have been conducted on demonstrations for engineering courses. Vander Schaafand Klosky [12], Welch and Klosky [13] presented demonstrations for solid mechanics to linktheory to the students’ natural knowledge and excite interest in the course. Paul. S.

One of the authors began teaching an “Introductionto 3D Printing & Design” class in the summer of 2016, and the C-STEM purchased threeFusion3 F-400S’s, an FDM machine, specifically for the class (see Figure 11). The C-STEM hasallowed the Library to keep one of the machines on loan. The F400-S was chosen because itallows the use of a wide range of printing materials such as PLA, ABS, ASA, PETG,Polycarbonate, PC-ABS, Flexible, Polyesters, Acrylic, Soluble, and more.43 Its build volume of14.0 in x 14.0 in x 12.60 in (355 x 355 x 320 mm) is also more than two times larger than theLulzbot TAZ 5 and five times larger than the FlashForge.

Students should assume that their boss knowsabout computer hardware and the current subject. Thus, they should use the correct language andthe right terminology. Some labs ask the students to write a procedure to solve the problem theysolved, assuming that the procedure would become part of the company’s documentation andtraining for other technicians.
