Implementation of the Internet-Based Nondestructive Evaluation Laboratory for Applied Engineering Technology Curriculum

工程 - 工程技术 (58)这是 CCLI 第一阶段探索性项目，该项目正在调整现有的无损评估 (NDE) 教育材料，在面向应用工程技术学生的超声成像实验室课程中强调制造、焊接和航空维护 NDE 技术。该项目还在开发针对社区学院学生的基于互联网的课程。实践实验室课程涵盖了无损检测的基础知识，并说明了具有现实问题的零件和材料的无损评估技术。根据美国无损检测协会推荐实践编号 SNT-TC-1A (2001)，该课程满足 I 级和 II 级 NDE 的理论和培训要求。 NDE实验室是工程技术学生、社区学院学生和在职工人的培训中心。地区雇主强调迫切需要具有无损检测知识和经验的员工。该评估计划旨在衡量实验室练习和网络课程的有效性以及学生在超声成像和无损检测方面的能力。该项目正在通过演讲、研讨会、专业期刊和网站进行传播。一所大学、四所社区学院和一些行业合作伙伴正在就该项目进行合作。

Engineering - Engineering Technology (58)This is a CCLI Phase 1 Exploratory Project that is adapting existing nondestructive evaluation (NDE) educational material to emphasize manufacturing, welding, and aviation maintenance NDE techniques in an ultrasound imaging laboratory course for applied engineering technology students. The project is also developing an internet-based course that targets community college students. The hands-on laboratory course is covering the foundations of NDE and illustrating nondestructive evaluation techniques of parts and materials with real-life problems. The curriculum fulfills Levels I & II NDE in theory and training requirements, according to American Society for Nondestructive Testing Recommended Practice No. SNT-TC-1A (2001). The NDE laboratory is serving as a training center for engineering technology students, community college students, and incumbent workers. Area employers are emphasizing the urgent need for employees with knowledge and experience in NDE. The evaluation plan is measuring the effectiveness of the laboratory exercises and the internet-based course as well as student competence in ultrasound imaging and NDE. The project is being disseminated through presentations, workshops, professional journals, and a website. A university, four community colleges and a number of industry partners are collaborating on the project.
