Students also recognized the significanceof engaging in practical hands-on activities within an exceptional workspace offered in theuniversity facility as a crucial aspect of their learning experience. Since the commencement ofthese programs in 2016, approximately 30% of incoming freshmen to Texas A&M University atQatar had previously participated in these outreach programs.

Section 4 discusses the RE-PST programassessment for the first year. Section 5 has the conclusion for the paper. 2. Preservice Teacher Recruitment The preservice teacher (PST) recruitment turns out to be a process that is more difficultthan we expected, perhaps because this is the first year that the program is offered and potentialparticipants are uncertain about what this program can bring to them. In fall 2022, we haveprepared the RET 3-fold flyer and set up a dedicated website for RE-PST program. One of themain efforts was to talk to PSTs
a crucial role in providing valuable insightsinto participants' behaviors, interactions, and engagement with the CAVE. The researcheradopted a non-participant approach during these observations, diligently recordingcomprehensive field notes that covered various aspects, including the classroom setting,participant engagement, attitudes, and behaviors. To supplement the qualitative data, five focusgroup interviews were conducted, each structured to include 5-17 participants. Observation sessions spanned three distinct cohorts from the fall of 2022 to the spring of2023. Cohort 1 participated in a single focus group session, involving 17 participants. In contrast,Cohort 2 engaged in multiple focus group sessions, including Focus Group 2

Do the new course modules/projects encourage students to continue to enroll in subsequent CS courses? • EQ5. Do the new course modules/projects increase student identity and belonging in CS as compared to baseline data? These questions will be answered by (a) gathering baseline student survey data in Fall 2022, (b) gathering student survey data each semester at the start of CS0/1, the end of CS0/1
