Manufacturing Technology Learning Modules: Integrating Mathematics and Technology Education Curriculum

该项目将开发与现有CAD软件一起使用的材料，该软件由MicroCompatible在NSF SBIR拨款下开发。这些材料将在技术课上使用，然后在数学课上使用。该软件在屏幕上创建一个块，通过使用易于学习的命令，可以切割和钻孔来制造零件。学生可以在屏幕上看到被剪切的零件，并可以放大并测量零件的不同区域。一旦切割指令完成，它们就可以通过网络或调制解调器发送到实际制造零件的商店，并发送给学生。这将帮助学生学习三维可视化，并将技术与数学课程相结合。

This project will develop materials that are used with existing CAD software, developed by Microcompatibles under an NSF SBIR grant. These materials will be used in technology classes and, later, in math classes. The software creates a block on the screen which, through the use of easy to learn commands, can be cut and drilled to make a part. The student sees the part being cut on the screen and can zoom in and measure different areas of the part. Once the instructions for cutting have been completed, they can be sent by network or modum to a shop in which the part is actually made and sent to the student. This will help students learn 3-dimensional visualization and integrate technology and math curriculum.
