Overall Insights of AWPThe benefits respondents listed from participating in the AWP focused on having a betterunderstanding of POGIL and more confidence in their ability to write and implement POGILin their classroom. They also appreciated getting feedback on their work and collaborating withothers in the same discipline. Specific comments included: I feel like I have a MUCH better understanding of what POGIL activities should look like and how to go about writing them. It was also great to have one fully completed POGIL activity and one that`s almost ready to be submitted.

Specifically, irregularlyshaped particles of gamma-alumina with an average diameter of 11 mu m were converted to smaller(ca. 4 mu m) spherical particles primarily consisting of delta- and alpha- (corundum) phases. Alsonotable was the finding that modifications of the particles, such as changes in surface area, correlateto applied plasma energy. The plasma torch was operated with an argon flow rate of 5 slpm, powerof between 400 and 1000 W, and average particle residence time in the plasma of 0.1 s.
