Manufacturing PBL

Manufacturers are opening their doors to students in communities across the nation. JAG KY is  in partnership with Adecco, Commonwealth Solutions and Makerminded. 

​

The mission of this Manufacturing PBL is two-fold. First we are striving to raise awareness about manufacturing careers and change the perception that our students have of the manufacturing industry. Secondly, we aim to help manufacturers create a recruitment pipeline from your schools that opens more opportunity for students to enter careers in the manufacturing field.

​

The students are tasked to complete a PBL (Project-Based Learning Experience). This is an adult-led, student-driven project. The students will take a pre-interview to discover their current understanding regarding manufacturing careers. They will visit local manufacturers, tour the facilities, and ask questions about modern manufacturing careers. Then the students complete a post-interview to see how their perspectives have changed. The project culminates by producing a video to promote the image of modern manufacturing and introduce potential career opportunities for the students.

​

Tours can be scheduled with a local manufacturer in your area preferably during the month of October (National Manufacturing Month) or anytime before the end of December 2017.
