Adolescents in grades 7-9 and 11 (n = 56) at an all-girls private high school participated in a 6-day 3D-printing activity designed to enhance their self-directed learning. Pre-and-post-test questionnaires and a Design Process Notebook, which also served as a scaffold, were used to assess their use of self-directed learning constructs (e.g., metacognitive evaluation, goal setting). A description of the project model and initial insights on the effectiveness of the activity were discussed.
