Frame et al.’s solution was to include usage of PLM softwarethroughout the undergraduate program of study however, this solution is unable to provide thecontinuity of following a singular product. Another approach is the formation of anextracurricular project group focused on providing undergraduate students with hands-onexperiences using PLM tools in a structured environment that simulates a typical industrialutilization paradigm through providing employee roles, structured workflows, collaborativeprojects, and formalized review processes.

Since each class has a clear structure of: Plicker question, lecture, break, Plicker question,lecture/activity, quiz, students are never doing any one task for very long.

improving theirinterest in engineering and STEM.VII. Study Limitations and Next StepsThe generalizability of the results of this study is limited by study context and participants. Thestudy took place at one private high school with one teacher and seventeen students to date, all ofwhich were advanced learners. Thus, the ability to infer potential impacts on high school scienceteachers and students is limited. The other two lessons developed during the teacher professionaldevelopment workshop will be conducted to increase the sample size of this study. Additionally,performing these lessons in schools with greater representative student diversity would alsoenhance our ability to generalize impact.VIII. References[1] S. L. Robinson and J. A. Mangold

I also like how for question two, for example, you didn't just write the units, but you explained the meaning of Kp, the equation and how you got your final units.• The explanation was very thorough and the exam solutions themselves were very neat and easy to follow. the only error I noticed was that in #5, your math for the limit is slightly wrong, as when s goes to 0, there is still the + 1 in each parenthesis, meaning the terms dont reduce to 0, but the K value instead.
