institutionalchange that occurs as the result of the realized value.Plans for Data Collection and AnalysisTo perform this study in the near future, we would use mixed methods to obtain data on how aFYECS can obtain value from living in the EIRC LLC located at Boise State University. Thisstudy will be conducted with the goal of learning how working with a LLC can create value forthe FYECS through using Wenger et al.’s Value Creation Framework [1]. Through the use of theValue Creation Framework, the researchers will provide a foundation for the evaluation processwhere the integration of heterogeneous sources of data will help to create a picture of hownetworks or communities can potentially create value for the FYECS [1].For this study, purposeful sampling

happened during SAGE and reflects onwhat must be improved upon.IntroductionThe underrepresentation of minority students in science, technology, engineering andmathematics (hereafter STEM) has been an enduring crisis in U.S. education. Decrying suchinequity, efforts increased from the late 1960’s and early 1970’s to educate and train minoritystudents in the technical fields. To that end, one would be hard pressed to find a higher educationinstitution that had not developed some sort of program to support minority students’ STEMparticipation1. Though the rate at which students seek to study STEM is increasingly comparableby race/ethnicity, the rate of students graduating with STEM degrees is still disparate2 3 4.

, also known as a supplemental instruction program, were designedto provide subject-specific support and enrichment to students in the program throughout the firstyear, particularly in subjects that students typically find challenging. Supplemental instruction isa method that was developed at the University of Missouri-Kansas City in the mid-1970’s byDeanna Martin5. Originally, it was designed for a medical school program, and was successful inimproving course grades and retention. However, today, it is used across several universityprograms, although it has not been widely researched within the engineering community.Facilitated study groups are designed to enhance students’ understanding of course material, andprovide them with skill

One person from the team begins speaking,and must continue talking without pause or saying a crutch word like um, uh, like, etc. As soonas the player says one of these words or pauses for > 1 s, a bell is rung and the next teammatemust immediately pick up where the previous teammate left off.

The structure of the campconsisted of face-to-face sessions and three independent projects aimed at developing a mindsetthat will ultimately help participants succeed in college. Each independent project built uponknowledge gained during that face-to-face sessions and previous independent project(s). Theauthors believe this systematic process of progressively giving the participants moreresponsibility and less instruction over the course of the camp helped to promote the self

In particular,we noted the need for future research to reanalyze the data using a clustering metric(s) externalto the objective measures of performance in CSE

The decision tree for classifying institutionsNote that “intro engineering” course here does not necessarily have to be a course with“Introduction to…” in its title nor does it have to be the same course for all majors. We aim todetermine if engineering students or students who are interested in engineering can get earlyexposure to the discipline via course(s) offered in college of engineering. Therefore, we countany engineering course available in the first term as an introductory engineering course. Theseintroductory courses include such diverse courses as “Introduction to Visualization and CAD,”“Introduction to Mechanical Engineering,” “Engineering Projects and Design,” and simply“Introduction to
