In order to address the growing workforce needs on AM technology,the Department of Engineering Technology at Miami University, Ohio has also launched aninitiative for developing an Additive Manufacturing Laboratory (AM Lab), partially funded by astate equipment grant, for supporting educational and research activities in various engineeringtechnology concentrations offered by the department. This paper presents the recently formedAM Lab initiative and discusses the use of the lab in supporting instruction and researchactivities in engineering technology. The paper also discusses the challenges and opportunities ofintegrating AM technology in engineering technology curriculum

Excellent teaching in those settings had been generallyoverlooked in the literature, and much of the existing research on effective teaching was focusedon instructors’ actions – what they did in their classrooms

members.To achieve impact, early career engineering education faculty need to be involved in “takingstrategic and intentional actions or perspectives towards goals that matter to oneself,” [2, p. 50],[3]. In other words, they need to exercise agency. Impact in engineering education can occur in avariety of ways, whether through the design of innovative curricula, development of educationalpolicy initiatives, creation of supportive learning environments, translation of engineeringeducation research into practice, or conversations with students about difficult content and careerpaths. However, despite the progress made in the past, there are still many challenges toovercome, particularly if trying to create large-scale transformations [4].Accordingly
