nothing is known about the distribution of “hot spot” siteswhere battery litter rates are high. Developing this information has become the focus ofenvironmental educational projects. Details are presented on a program that has been developedto conduct feral battery surveys as components of K-12 grade educational projects on theenvironmental implications of batteries, and to partner K-12 student teams with universityresearch. This program offers an opportunity for hands-on education about issues such as heavymetal toxicity, environmental economics, non-point source pollution and recycling. Because thisrequires off-school activity at busy commercial locations where students collect and characterizewhat could be thought of as “hazardous” samples

In thispaper, we describe a cross-disciplinary project where 3D printing and specifically, theconceptualization and prototyping of a temperature-controlled enclosure for a 3D printer, serve asan enabling platform to catalyze learning of the essentials of team-based, interdisciplinaryengineering research and development. The goals of the project are: (i) to investigate the influenceof a controlled temperature environment on the print quality of 3D printed parts, and to optimizethe print quality accordingly; (ii) to allow beginning engineering students with little priorengineering training and 3D printing knowledge to complete a product development cycle ofproblem definition, literature research, design concept

A first step in this process is developing anassessment tool to identify curriculum material that is no longer relevant. All engineeringprograms that are accredited by Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET)must have a continuing assessment process3. The assessment process must demonstrate that thedefined outcomes of the program are being measured.
