Several studies have demonstrated the positive impact of integrated peerand reverse mentoring on learning outcomes and skill development among university students.The reciprocal nature of the mentoring relationship promotes active engagement and the exchangeof diverse perspectives, leading to enhanced critical thinking, problem-solving abilities, and self-reflection [20, 21]. Furthermore, integrated mentoring encourages intergenerational connections,bridging the gap between experienced mentors and younger mentees. Research suggests that theserelationships contribute to increased social integration, emotional support, and a sense ofbelonging within the university community. Mentors

Due to schooldistrict pandemic regulations, teachers Eva and Sean (Pseudonyms) taught four days in-person(one-hour long sessions) with one day for asynchronous learning and lesson planning. Membersof the research team provided remote/virtual curriculum resources, research instruments, andongoing support in the form of weekly video calls and other communication. We designed a 3Dprinting curriculum using an instructional design approach called storylining [6], to promotecoherence, relevance, and meaning from the students’ perspectives by using students’ questionsto drive the lessons.
