The National Science Foundation Division of Undergraduate Education awarded Kennesaw State University Research And Service Foundation, Inc. $399,953 on October 1, 2026, under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) to develop and implement artificial intelligence–enhanced educational resources for undergraduate soft robotics instruction. The project will create open-source educational tools combining low-cost 3D-printed hands-on kits, MATLAB-based virtual laboratories, a digital twin platform, and AI-supported instructional modules that deliver personalized feedback. These resources will be integrated into courses spanning introductory engineering through advanced robotics and biomechanics. The project will investigate how students' interactions with physical and digital representations of soft robotic systems influence their understanding of compliance, deformation, and actuation, and how AI-supported learning environments affect engagement, self-efficacy, and learning retention. Effectiveness will be assessed through quasi-experimental research design. Performance of performance is Kennesaw, Georgia. The period of performance runs from October 1, 2026, through September 30, 2029.
