Eastern Iowa Community College is meeting a need for highly trained technicians in additive manufacturing (AM) by developing AM content across a set of programs as well as adopting multidisciplinary project-based instruction within courses. Faculty will collaborate with industry to develop AM content for welding, computer numeric control machining, mechanical design technology, logistics, information technology, and engineering technology. Incorporating problem-based instruction will promote students working together as well as developing critical thinking skills. A professional development webinar for high school and community college faculty will also be developed. Advanced manufacturing is Iowa's largest industry contributing $28 billion to the state's economy, representing 18% of Iowa's GDP and representing 13.5% of Iowa's employment. Most growth is in cutting edge applications of big data, the Internet of Things, bio-based products, advanced materials, AM and electronic design. Broad incorporation of additive manufacturing content within the programs will result in increased skilled workers in advanced manufacturing, and the use of the integrated project-based learning method will result in workers with increased critical thinking and problem solving skills.The goal of the Integrated Project Approach to College Teaching (3D ImPACT) project is to increase the number of skilled workers in AM through curriculum development; an integrated, project-based capstone course; and professional development for faculty. Activities include 1) collaborating with business and industry to conduct a Job Task Analyses and develop AM curriculum; 2) using the Digital Manufacturing and Design Innovation Institute training programs; 3) developing a project-based capstone course to allow students from different programs to work together to improve learning, performance and industry skill acquisition; 4) providing professional development for college and high school faculty; and 5) developing a project website. In addition, the project will help advance understanding of the circumstances under which integrated project-based learning methods will increase critical thinking and problem solving skills in a diverse workforce.

爱荷华州东部社区学院通过在一系列项目中开发增材制造内容以及在课程中采用基于项目的多学科教学，满足增材制造 (AM) 领域对训练有素的技术人员的需求。学院将与业界合作开发焊接、计算机数控加工、机械设计技术、物流、信息技术和工程技术的增材制造内容。纳入基于问题的教学将促进学生合作并培养批判性思维能力。还将为高中和社区大学教师举办专业发展网络研讨会。先进制造业是爱荷华州最大的产业，为该州经济贡献了280亿美元，占爱荷华州GDP的18%，占爱荷华州就业的13.5%。 大多数增长来自大数据、物联网、生物基产品、先进材料、增材制造和电子设计的前沿应用。在课程中广泛纳入增材制造内容将导致先进制造领域技术工人的增加，而基于项目的集成学习方法的使用将提高工人的批判性思维和解决问题的能力。大学教学综合项目法（3D ImPACT）项目的目标是通过课程开发增加增材制造技术工人的数量；基于项目的综合顶点课程；和教师的专业发展。活动包括 1) 与工商界合作进行工作任务分析并开发 AM 课程； 2）使用数字制造与设计创新学院的培训项目； 3) 开发基于项目的顶点课程，让来自不同项目的学生共同努力提高学习、表现和行业技能获取； 4）为大学和高中教师提供专业发展； 5) 开发项目网站。此外，该项目将有助于加深对基于项目的综合学习方法将提高多元化员工的批判性思维和解决问题技能的情况的理解。
