Abstract

Society has been changing faster every day to adapt to changes linked to economic, technological, environmental, and social shifts and uncertainties. In times of uncertainties, everything, including education, is affected negatively. To protect and support the education pipeline, educators, departments, and colleges should invest in recruitment and outreach activities more than ever before. For this purpose, at __________, various off-campus, on-campus, and on-line day-long programs, summer camps, certification programs, and other activities for both K-12 students and school teachers are designed and delivered around the concepts of "3D printing and Computer-Aided Design (CAD)". In this study, the activities will be presented in detail. Students' and teachers' attitudes towards the concepts and activities will be discussed. Lastly, the challenges encountered will be shared with suggested solutions.
