After the implementation of the new teacher education curricular program, the BSE major in Science program had its first batch of graduates in the academic year 2021-2022. Yet, studies on the implementation of this new curricular offering have not yet been carried out.

This study utilized the Item Response Theory (IRT) approach using 2 Parameter Logistic (2PL) model to develop and validate an assessment tool for Grade 6 Science. The results found out in the discrimination index that the items included in the verbal interpretation were "very discriminating/very good," "discriminating/good," "moderately discriminating/marginal," and "poor/marginal." The results showed that the highest numbers of items were in discriminating or very good condition, so the 74 items can be included in the final test form. And in the difficulty index, the items are included in 3 verbal interpretations: easy item, average item and difficult item. Here, the highest number of items is included under "difficult item," which means that some items here can be rejected. The results of test statistics for internal reliability, indicates that there is a very high positive correlation results of the Split-Half Reliability and Spearman-Brown Reliability Tests, which are 0.985 and 0.992, respectively, indicate there is good internal reliability in the 120-item test. The Grade 6 Science teachers can use the developed assessment tools in assessing the students since it showed a very high positive correlation, indicating good internal reliability.

Methodology: The study employed a developmental and quasi-experimental research design. The 3D-PPD was designed using AutoCAD for 3D modeling and printed using a Bambu Lab X1 Carbon with AMS multicolor 3D printer. Research tools included survey and test questionnaires, an evaluation rating sheet, and a weekly learning plan. Statistical tests such as inferential statistics were performed using Jamovi software. Main Findings: The 3D-PPD received "very satisfactory" ratings in design (M = 3.62, SD = 0.27), instructional quality (M = 3.53, SD = 0.36), and costbenefit (M = 3.40, SD = 0.38). It significantly improved students' CUPM (p < 0.05, d = 0.90) but showed no significant improvement in ATP (p = 0.294, d = 0.43). Furthermore, the correlation analysis between CUPM and ATP after exposure to the 3D-PPD yielded a p-value of 0.818, indicating a statistically insignificant relationship. Novelty/Originality of this study: This study pioneers the development of an instructional tool through 3D printing, recognizing how modern fabrication technologies can concretize abstract physics concepts and offer scalable solutions to instructional material gaps in physics education. It also offers a significant insight into distinct students' learning dimensions which emphasizes the need for contextualized support to inform future instructional design and research.
