For the past ten years computer simulations have beenincluded to more effectively prepare students for use and application of thesetechnologies. More recently numerous class projects with local manufacturing companieshave been incorporated, and currently a three quarter sequence of courses is required forstudents in our Manufacturing Technology major.

Course Using Design-Based Teaching ApproachAbstract: Introduction to Manufacturing Processes is one of the core courses in most mechanicalengineering, manufacturing engineering, and industrial engineering programs. The current coursecurriculum and teaching style mainly depend on the lectures for the manufacturing processes thatare aligned and synchronized with the laboratory work (project) to gain the required knowledgeand skills. According to students’ feedback for this course as well as similar courses offered at otheruniversities, the course is time intensive, involves no critical thinking, requires limited classparticipation, and is not well connected with real-world manufacturing problems

Starting with measurements, students are givenlab exercises that illustrate the techniques needed to manufacture a machined part. Followingmeasuring, there is a two-week introduction to the machines, which requires individuals tooperate the lathes and teams of two to operate the mills. Next, the students are given a two-weekproject where they individually make a screwdriver using the available equipment.

The workshop was intentionally designed to focus instruction on processesand techniques with a low barrier to entry, i.e. those that don’t required years of practice to gainproficiency, to enable students to complete relatively high-quality work without extensivetraining or prior experience. Toward the end of the workshop we introduce topics related toproduct development including opportunity recognition, conceptual design, sourcing materialsand hardware, and the characteristics of an effective prototype.The workshop concludes with student
