In Service of Equity: 3D-Printed Models in University Introductory Physics
Toggerson, Brokk K.
Physics Teacher, v60 n7 p565-568 Oct 2022
One of the central tenets of Universal Design for Learning (UDL) is the presentation of concepts using multiple modalities. As new technologies develop, the variety of available representations increases as well. In this paper, we explore how 3D-printed models can provide another avenue of approach to physics concepts. Students with low vision may particularly benefit from such models.
