researchers at MIT connected an early computer to a millingmachine1. Going forward, the development of the CNC machine changed the capabilities ofmanufacturing by allowing for precise control, which provided increased reliability andaccuracy, as well as product repeatability.More recently, the Standards for Technology Literacy adopted by the International TechnologyEducation Association2 have stated that hands-on learning opportunities should be incorporatedinto the engineering curriculum. Emphasizing this is a rich body of literature based on multipleeducational movements that has shown hands-on activities promote deeper learning andunderstanding of concepts3.Leading students toward a hands-on opportunity to work with a CNC machine will allow them

To that end, thecreation of cohesive course sequences as an opportunity to implement the reform was identified.Three cohesive course sequences, so called “track”, have been offered to the students. The Designand Manufacturing track provides seven closely-integrated courses to help students learn how toapply engineering fundamentals to practical design and manufacturing problems. The trackcourses include: Engineering Materials, Numerical Analysis, Manufacturing Processes, MachineDesign, Computer-Aided-Engineering, Advanced Manufacturing Engineering, andManufacturing Systems.

: Service Learning with Manufacturing Engineers “A cool glass of water is worth little under normal circumstances, but if the circumstance is great enough, a cool glass of water can be worth considerably more” 15IntroductionThe concept of “just-in-time” has had a variety of applications, most notably in manufacturingindustries, where the practice of producing items only as needed has enabled a large reduction inlevels of inventories, reduced space required for production, and other cost and quality benefits.The approach was developed most fully at Toyota1,2 as a key feature of the Toyota ProductionSystem. Retail industries3,9 have used just-in-time as a means to reduce stock and inventorylevels resulting from improved forecasting technology, a
