Even though students found the class enjoyable,they expressed some negative perceptions regarding some stages of the engineering designprocess, and the pacing of the course. Further, some 7th graders described the 3D CAD softwareas being hard to follow. Additionally, students learned that collaboration is an important component of theSTEM-ID curriculum. In real-life settings, engineers collaborate with their peers throughout thedesign process. It is important that students be able to collaborate because a critical stage of theprocess is the selection of the most promising solution among several competing ideas.Collaboration among classmates was perceived as a positive experience by STEM-ID studentsacross

Due to their effectiveness, hands-on design projects areimplemented in numerous design courses across the world [3].Using 3D printing as an option allows students a technical method to prototype that is moreadvanced than simple low-fidelity models, but also safer and more accessible than constructingprototypes in a machine shop. As a result, 3D printing is used in a variety of design coursesincluding high school, undergraduate, and graduate levels of STEM education [4-6].Incorporating 3D printing into a course allows students to build upon critical thinking andproblem solving, as well as increasing writing and speaking skills [4].

To scale the program up in a sustainable way, all studentsenroll in the same “umbrella” course but then engage in different international tracks, allowingeach individual track to remain a reasonable size (25-30 students). Tracks meet individually onehour per week during the semester, and then travel together for two weeks in May. Rather thanhaving each track as a separate program, using the umbrella format with multiple tracks in thesame program helps consolidate administrative processes (e.g., one application process instead ofmultiple processes for each

impressionthat the ma term (the so-called inertia force) is a real force. Since this is certainly not the case,the instructor has to make sure to mention over and over that it is only a fictitious force. He canalso emphasize this by choosing a different color for the inertia forces in the free-body diagramwhen doing example problems on the board.I feel that the application of d’Alembert’s principle has several advantages:  By drawing the inertia forces (which of course show the reaction forces at bearings) into the FBD, the student get a better feel for what is happening in the system. In many systems they will be able to immediately determine the direction in which the bearing forces point.  Multiple-body system are easier

After all, African American women areat the intersection of two of the most pervasive prejudices in this country: racism and sexism12.On the most general level, oppression denotes structural and material constraints thatsignificantly shape a person's sense of possibility and opportunities13.
