, he investigates best ways to expand cutting edge technologies to the workforce. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2019 Critical Thinking in Manufacturing Engineering Education AbstractAccording to A.B. Steyn, engineering education cannot be solely based on memorization andtechnical calculation. It is imperative that the engineering students develop critical thinking skillsfor better understanding and reasoning of problems they may face professionally in the future.Critical thinking is the process of conceptualizing, applying, analyzing, synthesizing, and/orevaluating information obtained by observation, experience, reflection, reasoning

embeddisciplines as distinct knowledge bases [7] and communities of practice [8].Figure 1 illustrates the intertwined evolution of a profession’s preparation and practice [9]. AsFigure 1 suggests, the enactment of a professional discipline is guided both by ethics andstandards of practice; these activities define competencies, job roles, and ultimately career paths.Professional societies codify these elements by defining ethics and competencies, but also byFigure 1. Model of a Professional Discipline [6]reflecting professional performance. Professional societies span another boundary:governmental. By promoting and facilitating certification and licensure, professional societieslegitimize and allow external bodies to monitor and enforce professional

such as collaborationand reflection. At the end, students demonstrate knowledge and are judged by how much theyhave learnt and how well they communicate it. Throughout this process, the teacher’s role is toguide and advise rather than to direct and manage student work [7]. In project based learning, theprojects will have varying complexity but all will relate in some way to the fundamental theoriesand techniques of an engineer’s discipline specialization. Successful completion of projects inpractice requires the integration of all areas of an engineer’s undergraduate training. Project workis more directed to the application of knowledge, management of time and resources by thestudents as well as task and role differentiation is very important

Student suggestions were to amend the grading rubric for the presentationto reflect the importance of these areas so their understanding of each method would increase.Although the students appreciated the support and the use of gateways to keep their projects ontrack, they felt that four meetings were a bit excessive. They recommended that the meetings bereduced to three.The Project: Second Offering:The second offering of the course was much smaller, with only 20 students. Because of this, thenumber of tooling choices was

theimportance of customer discovery [8]. Student teams also benefited from video conferences witha number of industrial experts and consultants. Each student team presented their challengestatement and discussed possible solutions with the industrial experts. These experienced AMexperts from industry helped troubleshoot the teams’ design ideas leading to improved finalprototypes. Overall, the course was a success in terms of students’ interdisciplinary teamworkskill development and creative problem-solving using AM.This novel pedagogical approach contains several best practices. This paper will report thedevelopment and implementation steps of this original course. The evaluation results will also beprovided to reflect the pros and cons of the course

Participants will gainexperience in using freely available and popular software tools.The Electronic Mood RingThe original Mood Rings were popular in the 1960s and 1970s; they included a special type ofmaterial that changes color in response to heat. As body heat warmed up the ring, it wouldchange from dark to brown to yellow to green to blue. The electronic ring that girls were askedto design is similar, but it uses a temperature sensor

Also, the continuous increase in the needs for newtechnical and nontechnical skills in the modern work environment represents another pressurefactor on the universities to update student's learning outcomes to meet the demand of thecontemporary industry and business to up-to-date qualified workers. Thus, teaching style needs tobe updated continuously to reflect the direct and indirect changes in the learning and workenvironment. In general, during the past decades, education

It should be noted that theagreement between experiments and theory is not required, but what matters is insight inexplaining the differences. Exams are problem-based, open-ended, and students are given 24 hoursto complete it.

Various researchers agree that hands-on activities can assist students torelate to the concepts that are behind the technology used in these activities [20-22]. This isespecially important in academic areas like mechanical principles where mathematical andengineering theory are connected with manual methods [23].In education, robots are used in outreach activities to motivate students to become interested inScience, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) starting in kindergarten [24] andelementary school [25, 26] and beyond.

Our experience with theincorporation of renewable energy topics in the senior project design courses demonstrated that theabstract knowledge acquired by the students during their first three years of studies was put into practice.The students in these projects gained extensive knowledge of electronics and mechanical components andtheir characteristics, environmental and structural constraints, separating different aspects of the project,such as generator or converter type, its parameters and characteristics, and what are the final outputs andits

manufacturing in both of these disciplinesis needed8. Many current engineering programs do not emphasize the marriage of design andmanufacturing in a modern industrial technical workforce [10].Many research studies have assessed the quality of exposure to manufacturing through the seniordesign or capstone course. McMasters and Lang indicate that few people in industry have anunderstanding of how the current engineering education is undertaken. Through design projects,the inclusion of industry partners in the education process will enhance the education provided tothe students and better reflect the expectations of industry [11]. Universities are exposingstudents to manufacturing through senior capstone design courses to offer students with arealistic
