This $299,998 National Science Foundation award under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) funds the University of Houston to develop an engineering design and technology course integrated with 3D printing for preservice secondary STEM teachers. The course aims to serve the national interest by introducing preservice teachers to 3D printing technology and its transformative impact on the iterative engineering design process. Over three years, the University will purposefully integrate discussions of 3D printer hardware, manufacturing methods, potential defects and performance into its existing engineering design course for the TeachHouston secondary STEM teacher preparation program. The developed modules will be implemented and assessed with approximately 45 STEM majors seeking teacher certification annually, totaling an estimated 135 preservice STEM teachers. Project results and the shared course modules are intended to contribute empirical research on effectively utilizing 3D printing in the engineering design process for secondary teacher training.
