This sacrifice is only made  possible due to the intrinsic personal connection the student has to the project, and the socialbonds and sense of belonging that results from working with similarly engaged students. Non-participants may look upon such commitment as extraordinary, odd, or perhaps both. There areclearly easier ways to muddle through an engineering degree.

, many of the students would have been taught relatively little of theCalculus material covered in Math 231. As students in Math 231 are learning much ofthe material for the first time, they may approach the PLTL groups in a more open-minded fashion, and may be more receptive to the learning tools and additional work thatthey are gaining in the groups. Whereas, if students in Math 116 believe that they alreadyknow much of the material, they may be less interested in devoting effort to incorporatingPLTL group activities into their studies and achieve less benefit from the groups. Asmentioned previously, facilitators in Math 105 PLTL groups have frequently encounteredthis attitude. Engineering freshmen in Math 105 often believe that they fully

Instead, the objective was to exposethem to these topics by keeping in mind that most of them do not possess the necessaryknowledge on calculus and differential equations. Based on the amount of exposure that thestudent will receive on each of the topics, either two or three weeks were allocated for eachtopic.

Therefore, thismodule and subsequent modules allow for a multi-dimensional approach to projects that aregenerally seen as one-dimensional.After completing the build of their vessels for the second time, students will test their newdesign. Because the students will have spent more time understanding the problem, researching,brainstorming, and building the prototype, the vessels should perform better than their firstattempt at the egg drop. This process will build an appreciation for the engineering designprocess, instill a culture of teamwork, communication, and problem-solving in the students earlyin the course as well as develop their understanding of STEM

There are several reasons that involving undergraduates in outreach is particularlyeffective, primarily because they can break the stereotypes of engineers that most K12 studentshave in their minds.
