These students are generallyidentified early in high school (if not in middle school) as high-potential scholars for whomaccess to opportunities like this STEM program are not common in their own school orcommunity centers. Effectively, the academic and social characteristics of each section aredesigned through this admissions process.Section instructors are asked to recruit teaching assistants for their projects with a target of oneTA per 4-5 high school students where classes ranges in size between 16 and 25. This class sizeis dependent on room size and/or laboratory capacity. These TA’s are drawn almost entirelyfrom the undergraduate engineering

the students’own experiences.Research activityThe greatest change proposed and eventually implemented relates to the teaching process andhow the teacher-facilitator presents the physics concept. In the pre-existing paradigm, teachersintroduce the theory of a new concept prior to running an experiment or discussing contextualapplications of the theory. The physics laboratory objective is solely to verify or support thepresented theory. Teachers then encourage students to extrapolate implementation contextsthrough discussions that follow the lab experiment. The focus of the student lab report is ontheory, procedures, data collection and applying that data to the theoretical equations. Reportconclusions recount how well the experiment matched
