She frequently consults on statistical design and analysis of scientific research projects, and she has been involved in the formative and summative eval- uation of federally-funded STEM education grants since 2002. A particular focus of this work has been computational science, a discipline arising from the intersection of science, mathematics, and computer science, as well as the diffusion and adoption of STEM education innovations. Additional scholarly inter- ests include the history of statistics and representations of mathematics and statistics in popular culture, c American Society for Engineering Education, 2017

Thispaper reports on a high school outreach program designed to promote interest in STEM, with afocus on biomedical engineering, that is part of a large Engineering Research Center. Initiallyintended to be an on-campus program with authentic research experiences, the outreach programwas forced to move online due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This shift was accompanied

To obtain in-depth measures for these process oriented student learning outcomes, 100percent behavioral observation is typically used, but which is time consuming and expensive.Work sampling is a common industry practice used to observe physical activities, as it minimizestime to collect data, yet provides statistically similar results relative to 100% behavioralobservation.
