3D Printing
3D printing enhances student learning by providing tangible, real-world student design projects to provide opportunities
to test and analyze products, refine and redesign quickly, and replicate final solutions.

3D Printing in TRAILS Lessons
Some TRAILS lessons were entirely 3D printed (Dbait) while others only require custom parts that are designed and printed by students (Clean Sweep and Bumble Bot). Tangible 3D models allow students to cognitively explore science concepts that are often challenging to conceptualize without a model.
