Results of Gitsham et al.’s [28] survey of CEOs and other executives focus on how softskills and hard skills are beneficial for leaders at all levels of the organization. Specifically,acquisition of interpersonal skills may provide added benefits of knowing and understanding ofhow to interact with people with different cultures and apply the skills to improve organizationalperformance. Soft skills are a set of interpersonal and social skills, whereas hard skills includethe technical or administrative procedures in which the results are quantifiable and measurable[43

In total, 52 students providedresponses to the survey. The majority of these students were involved with a competitionteam/club (73%, N=38). About a quarter of students either used the BIC for their capstoneprojects (15%, N=8) or were involved in other activities (12%, N=6). The results from thissurvey are reported with appropriate IRB approvals.Students were asked to indicate how much their BIC experience(s) contributed to their ability toengage in various behaviors.

Next, the student looks at theGraph tab Basics which contains information like the physical dimensions and locations ofpanels (a non-solar move that is ignored because it is within the noise threshold). Panel 259 isremoved and they add another panel near 259’s previous location. Finally, they edit panel 318,which is over 10 feet away from panel 259’s location in two dimensions (roughly height andlength) and run a solar annual analysis finding 318 produces 269 kWh per year.Some variations on this micro-iteration include: analyzing daily solar production of panelsinstead of annual production and varying location and solar cell efficiency for locations.

Students then use the protocol to conduct sampling in the local community and analyzeresults in light of their hypothesis. Students are required to submit a final written report.
