Yang, Jack X.; DeYoung, Veronica; Xue, Yuanxin; Nehru, Amit; Hildebrand, Alexandra; Brewer-Deluce, Danielle; Wainman, Bruce – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2023
Three-dimensional (3D) scanning and printing technology has allowed for the production of anatomical replicas at virtually any size. But what size optimizes the educational potential of 3D printing models? This study systematically investigates the effect of model size on nominal anatomy learning. The study population of 380 undergraduate…

Vasco Rikkers; Dipti Kapoor Sarmah – Journal of Computing in Higher Education, 2025
In recent years, gamification has seen a rise in usage for cyber-security training, with some of the most used elements being story and narrative. Yet there seems to be a lack of research on story-based gamification as well as how this type of gamification affects a training's effectiveness. The goal of this study was to test the effectiveness of…

Thomas-Seale, L. E. J.; Kanagalingam, Sanjeevan; Kirkman-Brown, J. C.; Attallah, M. M.; Espino, D. M.; Shepherd, D. E. T. – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2023
Additive manufacturing (AM) is projected to require 60,000 jobs in the UK by 2025, but there are a series of barriers to the industrial application. One of the most problematic is non-comprehensive knowledge in design for AM (DfAM). This study aims to test the effect of two undergraduate DfAM teaching approaches. A visual and audial approach…

Cockrell, Jay; Petcovic, Heather L. – Journal of Geoscience Education, 2022
Topographic maps are a common form of 3D surface elevation data represented as a 2D display. Despite their use in geoscience courses, many students find learning to effectively read and interpret these maps challenging. Here, we present a tool for teaching topographic map interpretation using 3D printed terrain. The terrain was 3D printed from a…

Brannon, Jacob P.; Ramirez, Isaac; Williams, DaShawn; Barding, Gregory A., Jr.; Liu, Yan; McCulloch, Kathryn M.; Chandrasekaran, Perumalreddy; Stieber, S. Chantal E. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2020
Experimental methods for determining 3-D atomic structures, such as crystallography, are rarely taught in the undergraduate curriculum, yet are considered to be the norm for 3-D structure determination in a research setting. Although a fully physical understanding of crystallography takes years of practice, practical applications and basic…

Crowe, Charles D.; Hendrickson-Stives, Albanie K.; Kuhn, Stephanie L.; Jackson, Jennifer B.; Keating, Christine D. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2021
The interaction between water and surfaces is observed in our daily lives and is used in laboratories to study materials properties, such as interfacial tension. Making the connection between fundamental scientific phenomena and everyday observations is a powerful method of highlighting the importance and relevance of science to the K-12…
