Abstract

Hands-on learning is the core of Engineering Technology programs, and a high number of the courses is taught with the laboratory sections. This paper presents the service learning based enhancements made in one of the Engineering Technology courses. Course students learn manufacturing the complex machined workpieces using the G-code simulators. Teaching the applied milling and turning practices is the main deliverable of the course with a required term project which is focused to service learning concept. Student teams formed in the middle of the semester design, simulate, and machine a functional service learning product using the departmental computers, simulators, and CNC machines for their project. The feedback provided by the project students presents a number of progresses on the attainment of the ABET Student Outcomes. This paper reports the development and implementation aspects of this course.
