connectionbetween parts one and two.The quantum dot data collection went very smoothly, and all three students were able tobuild a spreadsheet with their data and results without issues. It is possible that afreshman or sophomore may experience more difficulties when reading the theory andcollecting data due to less experience in a laboratory setting.6 AcknowledgementsThis project is supported by the National Science Foundation through the ATE program,Award No. ATE 1700695.
