It can be assumed the student/s that responded “NotApplicable” were not members of the project, but responded to the question. The results fromthe survey indicate that projects had a positive influence on the students’ success.In general, undergraduate research has been shown to positively impact engineering and scienceeducation14.

faculty to TEACH them. There has been a rejection on the part ofthe students of ownership or responsibility for the learning process. The common complaintamong faculty is that the students seem to retain less and their ability to perform critical thinkingwith the material they retain is greatly diminished compared to students 20 years ago.This increased focus in the engineering educational system on learning styles has been paralleledby a growing phenomenon in the lower educational levels; home schooling. It is suggested thatit might be profitable to look to the home school community when considering this conundrum.In the early 1980’s, the general public had not heard of home schooling. Today home schoolingis a widely used and growing educational

Encounters with working engineers, whether byvideo or in-person, provide the expertise and real world context necessary for raising engineeringcareer awareness in students and teachers. Overall, this pilot study supports conclusions thatvideo instruction can be beneficial and time effective ways for engineers to communicate theirwork for broader impacts in elementary school settings (Colston et al., 2017; Laursen &Brickley, 2011).ReferencesBrophy, S., Klein, S., Portsmore, M., & Rogers, C.

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.
