learn from the core tenants of engineering.In this paper, we discuss a game developed in a Maker Space designed to embody the ideas ofbroadening contexts and participation in engineering. The goals of this game is to showcase thehumanistic side of engineering by facilitating a thought experiment how human motivation andinterest can be used to solve our society’s problems. Staying true to the aforementioned aspectsof making (i.e. learning and expression) players of the game would get to learn about differentaspects of engineering, and at the same time be able to color their end products with theirpersonal expressions.All players will work with a game kit which allows them to create a story of how an engineerwould use an engineering habit of mind
electronicdevices that need extreme accuracy and are now able to be much smaller. Engineers are able todesign smaller less expensive and more effective devices thanks to the advancements inpiezoelectric motors. The world’s energy crisis has not been solved, but there is a push for thegreatest minds and the next generations to find a way to reduce our dependence on fossil fuelsand rely more heavily on clean renewable energy. Numerous research applications are currentlyusing piezoelectric materials in an effort to harvest energy in nature through wind6 andmechanical vibrations that are overlooked daily. Maybe one day in the future you will bepowering your devices from the “good vibrations” we create by walking, running, driving, ridingthe subways, and even

call this the “chop stick rule.” The mechanism must be small enough to be easily picked up and moved around by a pair of chopsticks.2) Mechanisms which can be constructed by commonly available manufacturing methods. We have a machine shop with conventional and CNC machine tools. There is also a 3D printer: Stratasys Mojo.3) Designing mechanisms with some applications in mind. These applications include but are not limited to manufacturing, biomedical engineering, and surveillance.We also created the following educational objectives associated with those technical goals.Project Objectives: Through projects under SMAL, students willa) develop out-of-the-box thinking approaches to design mechanism accomplishing the technical goals
manufacturing has been used for roughly 15 years, which was mostly used for rapidprototyping instead of full-scale manufacturing. Over the past few years, this has been changingand the true potential of AM is being realized. Making components that have internal geometriesand can still be a single component will bring entire assemblies into single parts, whilestrengthening them, and saving money on tooling, materials, and machining4. Manufacturing iscoming to a point to where the only limitations are the minds of designers and engineers. Withthese tools, a micro quadcopter frame will be designed with an internal porous frame that will beinstilled while still composed of one solid manufactured part that can then be tested and analyzedto discover if this
