six individual skillmodules covering skills such as dependability, responsibility, independence, persistence,integrity, and ethics. The main goal is to create multiple opportunities to teach and reinforcesoft skills within the regular technical curriculum in the high schools. This paper discussesthe integration of the soft skills modules into the technical curriculum developed viaexamples, and outlines its potential uses in this engineering department’s curriculumincluding its manufacturing engineering program. The paper concludes with a discussion ofthe implementation of this project and provides some preliminary feedback from theparticipating high schools and reflections of the authors. It also includes future workopportunities such as

Students respond using a 6-point Likert-type scale from 1 (Completely Uncertain)to 6 (Completely Certain).Cronbach's coefficient alpha was calculated to assess the internal consistency of each scale. TheEngineering Skills Self-Efficacy sub-scale values were good and consistent with those reportedin previous research. The value was borderline for the newly developed Additive ManufacturingSkills scale, suggesting that the number or content of the items may need to be reviewed.The means for all the scales were above the mid-point, suggesting that students had confidencein their abilities.

SolidWorks-generated components are reimagined in Blender forcompatibility with Unity as shown in Figure 2. The wind turbine model is sourced from the Unity3D Asset Store, providing a pre-built foundation [3].Within Unity 3D, the design process continues with the creation of essential elements, leveragingmesh colliders and scripting for user interaction as shown in Figures 3, 4, 5, and 6.

A small setof the final projects are shown in Figure 8.Changing Curriculum Outcomes and Skills DevelopmentTo meet the changes brought on by incorporating the described technologies, the course outcomesfor MFGE 332 have evolved to suit. These are shown in Table 2. Notably, outcome 1 has beenchanged from “Generate programs for CNC machining using manual part programmingtechniques” to reflect the move away from manual programming to CAM programming. Inaddition, outcome 5 has been added to reflect the increased role that inspection plays in the courseto help students
