prevent curing. Therefore, we recommend polyurethane rubber bands and polyethylenegloves. While curing, the surfaces are level so that silicone remains distributed evenly while it isviscous. In cases with shorter class sessions (45 minutes), students should have time to plan,prepare, and pour their molds, letting them cure overnight. We have used toaster ovens asincubators during longer class sessions (90 minutes) to accelerate the cure time allowing studentsto complete multiple fabrication stages during one period. Note that material used in making themolds must be tolerant of 150 degree Fahrenheit temperatures. After the soft robot part is cured,it can be removed from the mold.Inextensible LayerThe bottom layer of the gripper is adhered with

The outreach activities were meant to excite the K-5students about STEM and to provide them with an opportunity to engage in some hands-onactivities. These predominantly African American students had very little prior exposure tocollege students and even less exposure to role models working in STEM.Program Organization:The REU undergraduate student researchers were first told about plans for an outreach activityon the very first day of the REU program.

The DB PBL can also be supplemented with the traditional lab experiencesin materials science for a full range of advantages including expended knowledge. However, there arelaboratories in engineering and science that the DB PRL approach may not work for. Such labs oftenrequire sophisticated instrumentations for measurements and analysis.Throughout the DB PBL experience in Solid Mechanics Lab, the challenges of procurement of parts andmaterials were significant.
