to master during the camp. This approach placed an additional cognitiveburden on students during the activity, detracting from its intended impact. To address this, futureiterations of the camp should integrate more practical, skill-focused instruction earlier in theprogram. Collaborating with the programming course to incorporate instruction on programmingand Arduino could make the BB84 QKD activity more interactive and less reliant onpre-assembled tools. This change would empower students to engage with the materials moredeeply and confidently. Introducing small-group collaborations or gamified elements could alsoincrease and enhance the collaboration among students. Finally, as this was my first experienceteaching a workshop of this kind

, and PDM aremodern tools that help engineers in the design process and manufacturing of products. The growthof these PLM tools in engineering industries has presented a new challenge for engineeringeducators: how might PLM software training and education initiatives integrate into existingengineering curriculums? The main purpose of this research is to attempt to answer this questionthrough the implementation of a PLM system into an undergraduate research design team whileexamining the benefits and drawbacks of its use. An additional purpose is to bridge the gapbetween engineering curriculum and careers by training students in PLM tools.The case study was conducted with an undergraduate research team at Clemson University toimplement PLM tools

Education, 2025Performance Unveiled: Comparing Lightweight Devices Testbed and Virtual Machines for Edge ComputingAbstractTechnological innovations are accelerating across fields like engineering, IT, environmentalscience, and agriculture, the convergence of education & research has emerged as a vital andconcerning issue. Although the research in areas such as edge computing holds a lot of potentialfor real-world applications, its integration into engineering education remains marginalized dueto lack of curriculum alignment, lack of resources for faculty training, and industry-academiadisconnect. This study bridges the gap by investigating the suitability of hands-onexperimentation with edge computing frameworks to enhance
