Education: New Perspectives on a Student-centered Metric of SuccessAbstract. Retention in undergraduate science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM)programs is a national problem. Although many studies have attempted to identify characteristicsof students at high risk of attrition and other interventions to aid these populations, few haveadequately questioned the metric of success itself: retention. To be specific, “retention” tracks onlythe percentage of students who begin their undergraduate career in a chosen major and successfullymatriculate, which may be too coarse of a measure for several reasons: (1) it counts as successesstudents who remain in an initially chosen STEM major, but flounder, (2) it counts as failuresstudents

Labs help studentsgain experience in using real and industrial-scale equipment. However, lab time is often limited,students often have to share equipment, and labs need to be completed in a fixed time. As aresult, some academic institutions are interested in using remote lab experiences to complementor supplement local lab experiences [1-2].Additive manufacturing (AM) systems—which provide 3D printing process—have receivedmuch attention in recent years due to their flexibility in making parts ranging from simple
