The Glove That Failed

Shared across all four pathway courses. Ohio 072110 section 5.1 (PBS launch and orientation), 072040 section 5.5 (HBS launch and orientation), 072125 section 5.5 (BI launch and orientation), and 072130 section 5.5 (MI orientation and launch-safety). Canonical portal routes: the four orientation safety days plus pbs-launch, hbs-launch, bi-launch, and launch-safety. The exact myPLTW activity numbers remain unconfirmed pending Manuel's authenticated myPLTW review.
