Participatory Action Research Model that ultimatelyends with continual program enhancement. The structure of the initiative is not only based on the detailsof the schedule but also on the feedback of the participants. The lack of URMs in the college provokedan idea from personal experiences at other minority events. With the use of a systematic onlinedocument review of current weekend outreach programs, a plan of action was developed, and effectiveprogram designs were synthesized.Based on the systematic review of similar programs, the current plan is to implement a program inFebruary of 2020 that will target about 30 participants. Mentees will be able to connect with multipleorganizations such as the VEX robotics club, the National Society of Black

areprovided novel lesson plans and materials for two hands-on activities that can be used in their K-12 classrooms. Graduate students from eleven engineering and science departments collaborate todevelop these materials and ensure they meet the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS).Teachers earn continuing education credits for attending. REACT is an opportunity not only forteachers to learn about the cutting-edge research happening at University of Michigan, but alsoserves as a professional development tool for graduate students, giving them the opportunity towork on science communication skills as well as participate in curricula development. Theprogram has also developed a unique funding model, where university professors and departmentssponsor

Butgraduate student funding eventually dries up, graduate students are not equally listened to and creditedwhen they take on service and activist roles, and graduate school is frankly a difficult place with highworkload and low pay that you don’t want to stay forever. Figuring out what you need to do to get out ofhere (i.e., how to get the writing done) is not the whole game, but it’s one part of it.So, take some time and map out what your strengths and weaknesses are.

Thesecourses are: Airport Engineering and Civil Engineering Materials. The practices can be used inother courses, degree programs, and schools with appropriate modifications in order todecrease the learning gap.References[1] Wince-Smith, Deborah L.,”The Creativity Imperative: A National Perspective”, PeerReview, Vol 8.

Other students completed their studying between classes, forexample: “I have a break, and classes don't start till 12:30, so usually I'll do some mathhomework or something in that time.”-JenniferTime in Labs and LecturesWe
