Mihasan, Marius – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2021
The structure and function of biomolecules relationship is the hallmark of biochemistry, molecular biology, and life sciences in general. Physical models of macromolecules give students the possibility to manipulate these structures in three dimensions, developing a sense of spatiality and a better understanding of key aspects such as atom size…

Steven Marquez; Travis Varra; Cami Christensen; Om Rajasekharan; Carter Dojan; Janelle Hobbs; Rhys A. Otten; Luke Salzer; Jennifer D. Schuttlefield Christus; Justin B. Sambur – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
Scanning probe-based microscopes (SPMs) are widely used in biology, chemistry, materials science, and physics to image and manipulate matter on the nanoscale. Unfortunately, high school and university departments lack expensive SPM tools and materials microscopy activities to educate a large number of students in this vital SPM imaging technique.…

Gunderson, Julie E. C.; Mitchell, Dylan W.; Bullis, Ryan G.; Steward, John Q.; Gunderson, William A. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2020
Fused filament fabrication 3D printing is a process by which three-dimensional objects are created by depositing layers of a material onto a hard, flat surface by a robot. It is often referred to as an "additive manufacturing" technique because material is added in successive layers to create an object. Because many scientific…

Gabriella P. Sugerman; Manuel K. Rausch – Biomedical Engineering Education, 2022
Hands-on experiences in biomechanics and biomaterials courses are an important part of biomedical engineering education. Curricula of those courses often include laboratory modules on material testing and characterization. Unfortunately, large and expensive mechanical testing equipment may not beĀ available to all students, thus limiting students'…

Keune, Anna; Peppler, Kylie – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2019
Celebrating hands-on making and technological inventiveness, the Maker Movement promotes the popularity of new makerspaces: learning environments filled with diverse materials for youth's creative projects. Described as "constructionist learning environments," makerspaces can be challenging to design because materials require substantial…
