. The relatively new maker movement(and emerging groups like the Public Laboratory of Science, described below) are primeexamples of these new opportunities. This topic is perhaps the least well-known point inthis paper, and holds significant promise.In this paper, we describe our efforts to offer an interdisciplinary undergraduate classunder a flipped-content model utilizing open access content, coupled with team-basedlearning and student-defined projects. In this class we introduce students to the idea ofcommons-based peer production, and give them the opportunity to define and implementtheir own “open source science” project.

Recommendation: Business topics, automation/controls, product design, and lean manufacturing should be priorities for curriculum changes.5. Education MethodsThe process of delivering a curriculum is addressed in Table 6. There were clear responses thatcooperative education, internships, laboratories, and project work are very high priorities. This isa clear message that ‘hands-on’ education is a very high priority. As would be expected there aremismatches in priorities between academics and manufacturers.Table 6 - Education Method Priorities Top Second Manufacturing Academic Priority Priority Priority PriorityCertifications 7
