potential, respectively,from ATHENA. The current paper describes the implementation of the DACE process for the Summer2024 project, some findings, and the lesson plans developed by Zagozda to share more broadly to theASEE Community. MethodsAs described in Thomason et al.2, the DACE process provides an approach that middle/high schoolteachers can follow and translate to their classrooms. As a brief summary, DACE consists of thefollowing steps: 1. Calibration of the computer model(s) for the application of interest. 2. Design experiments to organize a set of computer model input parameter settings. 3. Execution of the computer model(s) to generate performance metric outputs. 4

The focus of the analysis was todetermine whether significant changes occurred in self-efficacy levels after the intervention andwhether these changes differed by gender. Paired t-tests were employed to evaluate within-groupdifferences in self-efficacy over time, while independent t-tests were used to comparegender-based differences in the intervention’s effect. The following sections detail the results ofthese analyses.

Another significant feature of Teamcenter that the team utilizedin their design process was workflows. A workflow is a collaborative, step-by-step process thatmodels many basic business and design functions. Workflows can route an item for design reviewand approval, oversee the change management process, and track manufacturing and designprocesses. However, for this case study, the team employed a basic workflow that includedassigning a task to either a group or individual user, completing that task by the assigned user(s),and finalizing the workflow.
