Program Description: This 30-hour OSHA General Industry Safety Certification Program was created by Grand Rapids Community College (GRCC), through seed funding from the Center for Advanced Automotive Technology ​(CAAT), to train workers for entry level positions in the advanced energy manufacturing...

Course Description: This course, developed by Bridgerland Technical College, teaches students concepts and techniques of 3D, feature-based, parametric modeling. SolidWorks is used as the modeling tool. Students will learn the SolidWorks interface, menus, toolbars and commands that are used to...

This 24-page document highlights a learning module that explores the processes for re-purposing failed 3D print projects, virgin print materials, and unused 3D filament spools back into usable 3D printing filaments. After the module, learners will be able to extrude acceptable 3D printing filaments...

This learning activity introduces students to rapid prototyping and 3D printing in the classroom setting. Students use a UV sensitive monomer to make small three-dimensional objects and learn about the chemistry and physics of the process. This demonstration is intended for a high school audience....

This 18-page paper, written by Michael Weinberg, discusses 3D printing and copyright. Weinberg expects the use of 3D printing to grow in the future and with this growth a number of questions may be raised. This paper addresses the possible question of "how to treat 3D scans in the context of...

This 12-page document highlights a learning module that explores 3D spatial visualization skills in additive manufacturing. Students are introduced to the Orthogonal Cartesian Coordinate System, the types of positive rotations that are possible, and the orientation of an object on the build platform...

Course Description: This course is provided Central Main Community College and is designed for the CNC machining instructor with an operational understanding of a Haas 3-axis CNC mill. This course includes both theory and hands-on lab time and provides students the opportunity to program, set-up,...

Course Description: This course is provided Central Main Community College and is designed for the CNC machining instructor with an operational understanding of a Haas 3 axis CNC mill, and a working knowledge of 4th axis CNC milling. This course includes both theory and hands on lab time. The theory...

This paper, from Hannes Lichte of the Institute of structure Physics at Dresden University, covers the electron biprism. Lichte includes formulas and diagrams to explain electron waves, scheme of electron biprism interferometry, coherence measurements, and electron holography. 

This webinar, from the National Convergence Technology Center (CTC), was presented by Gordon Snyder from Holyoke Community College and includes an overview of technical trends related to 5G networking. Topics covered during the presentation include 5G use cases, technology, slices, deployment model,...
