| dc.description.abstract | Purpose The purpose of this research was to investigate the effects of numerical control technology and computer aided manufacturing in American industry on industrial education and engineering technology education. The specific purpose was to identify a data base and rationale for curriculum development in NC/CAM through a comparison of views by industrial N/C-users and educators regarding appropriate instructional content for educational programs in this technology. Procedure the required information was obtained through a nationwide survey of industrial organizations and post-secondary educational institutions selected on the basis of their involvement in and utilization of N/C technology. A preliminary survey identified present and planned N/C instructional programs and, together with material from industrial training services, provided exemplary curriculum materials for the design of the main survey instrument.
