Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Artifact Description
The City of Naperville has many talented engineers that are constantly working and bettering the city of Naperville. Thanks to their various projects, this business project was able to focus on replacing a water main in a small roundabout in Naperville. Over the course of six months, the company and mentor provided the needed knowledge which was required for designing and knowing how and where to install the new water main. The mentor also provided the knowledge and guidance to pick out the best materials for the job for both creating a good replacement and staying within a reasonable budget. Overall, the best knowledge and experience gained was learning how to use a different software for designing floor plans and sewage systems, and also being able to come across real-world challenges such as time restraints and company budgets. Toward the end of the six months, the business mentor was also able to teach the basics of the JAVA coding language, and was able to lead a small exercise in creating the card game "21."
