projector type. The team also needed to decide on resin to purchase. The team wasdirected towards a site called muve3d.net6 for possible resin products by MakerJuice. Afterresearching them, it was decided to use SubG+ resin for the project. Attached below is a briefsummary on the resin properties according to the resource above6: Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) friendly, fast curing, low shrink (3.5%) material.The trade-off is higher viscosity (90cP at 25°C compared to SubG which is 12cP), but the benefit of the SubG+ resin is that it holds pigment for longer without as much settling. SubG and SubG+ cures under UV A, B, and C light around 420 nm. You can cure it with a DLP projector, a UV laser, or UV Light Emitting LEDs

Rather than looking on this as a hindrance, we decided to empower students in variousways. An example of this can be explained through the revolving activity shown in Figure 5.Rather than solely converging on the solution (which is B), students were encouraged todiscuss in pairs or groups why the other three options were incorrect. Students typicallysketched the profile of the objects or created 3D models in SolidWorks. Page 26.286.7 Figure 5 – Looking beyond the solutionWe

. Page 26.127.4BadgingBadging, or microcredentialing, is a process by which students can be evaluated on skills and knowledgeat a more granular level than a whole course. In our current educational model, when an employerreviews the transcript of a student who received a B in a class, that employer cannot distinguish whetherthat student did everything in the course pretty well, or is particularly good at some skills yet unable tocomplete other tasks12. The concept with badges, and why there is increasing interest in the potential usein education, is the ability to measure particular skills that are encompassed in a class.Moreover, badging also works to incentivize students.
