Several studies havebeen carried out with elementary and grade school students to learn more about human reactionto mathematics [5], yet fewer studies have been done on college students or later. Furthermore,the majority of these research studies on college students focus on first-year students enrolled ina mathematics course [3]. The current study of this paper is focused on a less studied populationof engineering technology students, and their tendency to engage in rational-analytical thoughtprocesses.Literature ReviewIn the 1970’s researchers indicated that

In other words, if a team originally chooses a route and/or sensor(s) that requireshigher levels of programming and they continue to fail, shifting to a different and possibly easiernavigational route can happen.Before students arrived, teams were randomly formed (two teams of five and three teams of sixstudents), lab facilitators and helpers assigned, and team packets prepared with event resources,such as team member role cards. PMTM 2.0 allowed each team member to choose their rolefrom the options shown in Table 1, and the mission recorder role from 2015 was removed andthe role of data engineer added.

This served the program wellfor several years but did not always offer the students a uniform design experience as thatdepended on the instructor(s) teaching those classes in a given semester.
