this transfer in a more effective manner [3]. The process of knowledge transfer ishighly dynamic and dependent on its content and relationship between student and teacher [4]and needs to be tailored to both for an effective outcome [5]. A number of different teachingmethods emerged over the years including active learning [6], flipping classroom [7, 8], problembased learning [9] to name just a few.After teaching mechanics courses in a traditional format for a number of years it becameapparent that any quantum jump in student learning success requires structural departure fromthe old teaching method and substantial overhaul modifications which would integrate differentpedagogical experiences and insights along with implementation of modern

An additional advanced manufacturing thrust includes robotics andautomation, automated inspection systems, and MES. These three thrust areas are correlated tothe four pillars of manufacturing knowledge in the following sections.The manufacturing engineering curriculum consists of traditional pre-engineering courses suchas calculus, physics, chemistry, and other core requirements.

We’ve design the curriculum to make sure our students are prepared for the workforce, and by all accounts we’ve got 90% of our students without an internship get internships, our students have very high placement rates, and very high salaries for our college, and really for Purdue.

These experiences fit well within a dictionary definition of engineers,namely, “a person who has scientific training and who designs and builds complicatedproducts, machines, systems, or structures.” (Merriam-Webster). And yet, studentoutcomes for ABET accredited engineering programs include design within social,health, and safety constraints as well as broad education incorporating global and societalcontext.While there exist a myriad of potential approaches to integrate ‘practice’ into theengineering curriculum, the examples available often in the engineering educationliterature tend to focus upon opportunities for authentic learning such as the creation ofcapstone

Moreover, this experienceenhances students’ technical research skills such as scientific thinking, ability to analyze andinterpret results, and presentation skills. 1. IntroductionThe motivation behind this work was to offer research experience to undergraduate students andinspire them to pursue higher education and research careers. Research experience is nottraditionally offered in an undergraduate curriculum, especially for community college students.An effective approach to address this gap is to offer summer research experience forundergraduate students.

At the same time, many engineering programs in theU.S. now provide students with access to high-tech “maker spaces” to manufacture their designsfor student projects (Wilczynski, 2015).

There is a great deal of research to support the efficacy ofintegrated learning for increasing the literacy of students. In particular, innovative strategies thatcombine Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) with literacy have beenfound to provide beneficial gains in reading as well as in STEM subjects.4-13 One example of thisis the Seeds of Science, Roots of Reading (Seeds/Roots) curriculum which integrates literacywith scientific knowledge to provide a fun and authentic context for learning both subjects.5, 6, 14Another example is the Engineering is Elementary Curriculum which has a story book that goeswith each of the STEM activities

Give students first-hand experience by putting them into project teams and have them work a semester together to develop a product. • Understand the need for lifelong learning. We provide the students with case studies to then describe tools of lifelong-learning that they would use.We measure the effectiveness of the class in several ways. One is through feedback of an alumniadvisory council. A second way is through industry input. A third way is by measuring how wellthe students meet ABET outcomes.
