NationalAssociation of Manufacturers found the inability to attract and retain a quality workforce as thetop business challenge, cited by 72.9% of respondents [6].Manufacturers are worried about their futures. The industry is dealing with a severe shortage ofworkers equipped with the knowledge and skills needed to function in advanced manufacturingworkplaces. Thankfully, this NASA-funded project provides more opportunities to preparestudents to enter the manufacturing career and excel with adequate competencies fosteringhands-on, simulation, and experiential learning through problem-solving.

IntroductionOne of the critical challenges facing higher education today is how to fill the gap betweenindustry’s requirements, expectations, and the preparation of undergraduate students beyond theclassroom. Faculty and students alike often come to the same conclusion
to determine whether there is a difference in learning given the twoenvironments (nearly all lecture slides, assignments and quizzes will be identical, in addition tothe instructor). Feedback will also be sought as to how students work in teams in the onlineenvironment. Prior research showed the learning (measured via grades) was improved throughan online format when focusing merely on the delivery of lectures6. Feedback will also becaptured in terms of time that the faculty member spends in delivering the course in each format.ConclusionsAn online Engineering Economy course is under development and will debut in Summer of2010. Data is to be collected which will help determine whether student learning is impacted bythe delivery. Information

These laboratories introducestudents to the fundamentals of pneumatic components and control of pneumatic circuits, as
novel topics such as AI and IoT related to AM. Second, manyunderserved students are not aware of the opportunities, benefits, and job security related to theAM field. Providing underserved students with access to relevant resources and activities maybenefit them in fostering awareness of AM jobs and developing career interests in pursuing an AMcareer at their early ages.MethodologyNeeds assessmentTo identify the specific gap in what needs to be taught and what has been taught in the currentmanufacturing curriculum, our team reviewed the curriculum for the cluster of manufacturing inlocal schools and school districts, Project Lead the Way (PLTW) courses on manufacturing (e.g.,Principles of Engineering for Grades 11-12, Digital Electronics for

objectives of the labs are defined. For instance, an objective is defined as follows: “After completion of this lab, the students will understand how to adjust firewall rules to secure containers and services.” 2) Lab manuals and lab answer sheets are created. Each lab manual contains detailed instructions for students. In the lab answer sheet, there are fill-in questions and discussion questions. In addition, screenshots and log files are required in some labs as evidences that certain tasks have been completed. 3) The new labs are tested on Google Cloud Platform and the lab solutions are developed for instructor use. 4) The labs are evaluated by faculty/students and then revised. Most revisions are minor.Four
