while it has become increasingly complex for those who produce and maintain technology. It is also pervasive and an integral part of growing up and being educated. As such the need for programs in technological literacy is diminished 5. The use of information technology in the workplace and the need to prepare students for careers that use information technology has long been the cornerstone of policies for the use of TL in raising productivity. This seems indisputable, but the market is a much stronger driver than policy in achieving this. Where policy can help is in reducing the digital divide that leave students from low income backgrounds stranded in low income jobs.5 It is also helpful in

With the experience ofmanaging two different RP machines (i.e. fused deposition modeling and 3D printing), theauthors have documented a collection of failures of student projects involving RP. The causes offailure have been categorized into Dimensional, Functional, Operational, and Economical.Finally, a guideline is provided for preparation of using RP in design or manufacturing courses inhopes of helping the readers create a more enjoyable and effective learning environment.IntroductionIn recent years, an increasing number of engineering educators have adopted Rapid Prototyping(RP) as a tool to enhance engineering curricula.

Implications for liberal educationIntroductionAt the 2010 meeting of the Technological Literacy Division Heywood argued that “a personwho has no perception of the contribution that engineering can make to our understandings ofbehaviour and society is not liberally educated. At some stage (high school/university) theyshould experience the study of engineering literacy” [1]. In the 12 years that have followedmuch has happened in the world of engineering, and while it is possible to stand over thethesis that was then offered, much has changed, and what members of the public conceive tobe technological literacy is somewhat different to what some of us thought it to be, even inthat
