The studio users incorporate these services intoclass projects, research, and instruction. Scalfani has also recommended the deployment of the3D studio in a visibly open area in their library. Colegrove reported findings from the Universityof Nevada, Reno (UNR)6. He indicated that the services offered by the campus library weresubstantial and cut across numerous disciplines. He reported that cross-disciplinary users quicklyadopted the 3D printing services offered by the UNR library and that the new 3D printers wereoperating at or near capacity during their first year of deployment

As the author’s institution was going throughthe process of revising and updating its policies for independent student use of the machineshops, the author sought input from other educators around the country regarding the proceduresthey followed. Input was sought though the ETD-L email discussion list. Particular focus wasplaced on situations beyond supervised classroom settings, for example when students areworking on non-classroom projects. An email was sent to the list asking the following questions:  Q1: Do you allow students to use machines independently?  Q2: What training is required before such use?  Q3: How is the training verified?  Q4: What

Through the observations and reactions students had to the environment,they found that renewable energy is much more accepted than what they experienced in their ownlives. Further, they found that the citizens working on the various renewable energy projects moreopen-minded to change and work toward better ways of incorporating these technologies

If students have a weak background and/or a low confidence with IT, then ITintegration should be different from a group of students whose background and confidence ishigher. The challenge was finding a consistent, quantifiable measure. To accomplish this, wedeveloped an IT impact analysis factor (IAF), which is a weighted average comprised of thestudents

Survey results also found that women preferred online courses to traditional classroomsettings.
