Micro and Nano Systems Assembly using Virtual and Physical Environments

这个CCLI（A I）项目涉及公差问题和微/纳米组装技术的课程和实验室模块的开发。 正在为工业、制造业和机械工程专业的高年级本科生设计和开发模块。 我们正在创建基于虚拟现实的环境，以提高学生的学习，以及鼓励跨大学的学生项目，涉及学生在新墨西哥州州立大学，和蒙特雷技术（蒙特雷，墨西哥）。 参与的行业合作伙伴包括桑迪亚国家实验室和MicroSat系统。在这个项目的重点是少数民族学生（西班牙裔和美洲原住民）的教育;通过研讨会活动，我们强调教育机会的重要性，并介绍少数民族和其他学生的微型器件组装学科领域。 除了这些讲习班之外，还开展了有学校学生和教师参加的外联活动（在梅斯卡莱罗阿帕奇保留地）。 传播活动包括在主要刊物和会议上发表论文。 其他传播活动是通过项目网站进行的。

This CCLI (A&I) project involves the development of course and lab modules in tolerancing issues and micro / nano assembly techniques. Modules are being designed and developed for senior level undergraduate students in industrial, manufacturing and mechanical engineering. We are creating virtual reality based environments to enhance student learning as well as encouraging inter university student projects involving students at New Mexico State University, and Monterrey Tech (Monterrey, Mexico). The industry partners involved include Sandia National Laboratories and MicroSat Systems. A focus in this project is the education of minority students (Hispanic and Native American); through workshop activities, we are highlighting the importance of educational opportunities and introducing minority and other students to the micro devices assembly subject area. Apart from these workshops, outreach activities involving school students and teachers (at the Mescalero Apache Reservation) are being conducted. Dissemination activities include publishing papers in leading journals and at conferences. Other dissemination activities are through a project web site.
