initially hesitant to engage with us on this project due to the logistics of kitcirculation and concerns with how kits would fit within their existing structure of their summerreading program. To allay the library’s concerns, we worked out a plan to utilize their existingactivity registration system to sign families up and their main branch for distribution. Our teamresponded to all email inquiries from the participants, provided weekly online Q&A sessions,and restocked used materials in kits. The library maintained control over registration andcommunication with families, including all personal identifying information. Our library partnersnoted that they appreciated that we worked within their parameters of lead time for planning ofthe summer

In order to ensure that participating campsand after-school programs provided high quality instruction, a separate team conductedstructured observations of the Study 1 research sites. For each participating site, a trainedobserver rated two one-hour samples of sessions using the Dimensions of Success (DoS)instrument [4] that is sensitive to good engineering instruction. This team also surveyed programfacilitators to determine the overall instructional plan, and administered the Common InstrumentSuite (CIS) as a post-test to measure attitudes towards engineering among youths and facilitators[5]. This data was summarized and shared with researchers to contribute to the analysis.We are

Assuming successful completion of that testing, we plan to implement it “live” witha predictive analytics class in the fall semester of 2023 and then make it broadly available for useby other instructors.A major planned enhancement to the generation of individualized datasets involves expandingthe randomization beyond the residuals term to the randomization of the generative modelcoefficients.Also planned is expanded dataset functionality to include categorical response vectors,generalized linear models (primarily Poisson regression), and the incorporation of

Thegreatest challenge came from finding a suitable company that could provide a particulardisplacement sensor, known as a Linear Variable Displacement Transducer (LVDT). Followingthis, there were subsequent delays in delivery time for the LVDT and other materials whichaffected the manufacturing timeline.

This places the students in a positionof leadership with influence on the club’s success. Additionally, Melissa and Isabellafound that many students in the STEM Club were interested in pursuing engineeringcareers but unsure which engineering field. This uncertainty lends itself
