In this work, students learn AM processes by comparinginexpensive 3D printers, three DLP (FlashForge Hunter, MoonRay S, and Phoenix Touch ProTranslating) and one FFF (MakerBot Replicator 2) 3D printer. These students’ explorations of new3D printing technologies exemplify “expansion,” the fifth stage of the students’ 3D printingexpertise evolution [33].Curricular ContextEven though 3D printers are used in many courses, the 3D printing lab/lecture modules areformally introduced in detail in a required one-semester, three credit-hours senior-level Computer-Integrated Manufacturing (CIM) course in two engineering programs: Bachelor of Science inEngineering with specialization in Mechatronics (BSE-Mechatronics) and Industrial Engineering(IE

strain.BackgroundThe ability for universities and other academic institutions to teach inter-disciplinary engineeringeffectively has increased over the past few decades. An example of this is shown in the progressmade in several studies by Marasco. In each of the studies it was found that when two or moredisciplines were implemented into the curriculum in order to teach the students a subject, thestudents actually learned the material better than if the subject was taught by itself [6]. In anotherthesis presented by Rigby, it was found that when students were presented with multiplerepresentations, or multiple sides of the same concept(s), that the students had a betterunderstanding of an ill-defined concept [8]. A summary of inter-disciplinary

Theoretically, the ADS-B Out device broadcasts a data frame once per second,which contains the basic flight parameters, such as aircraft identity, surface position data,airborne position data, airborne velocity, and other operational data [12]. The ADS-B receiverremains operational constantly to intercept the ADS-B Out messages for data

The students would gain significant knowledge indata analysis and statistics while comparing the results. A successful project would reflect goodunderstanding for students in most core courses required by MET programs such as thermal   courses, control, instruments, and statistics.
