Non-traditional Delivery of Hands-on Manufacturing Courses

Due to recent COVID-19 social distancing policies and procedures, there was no way to offer hands-on courses in an on-site format for many education institutions. The solution employed by many educators was to find new ways to implement web-based delivery tools and technologies in order to maintain course learning outcomes and help students successfully grasp course content. In this review paper, a number of innovative practices is highlighted used to deliver course content in several ways. Overall, the paper reports a number of available delivery mechanisms that could be implemented for several manufacturing courses and programs. © American Society for Engineering Education, 2022.
