The program emphasizes solving ill-defined problems; hence, participantsneed to be able to get the gist of the problem in the pre-planning stage prior to engaging inbuilding and using the robots. As such, program coordinators should reverse engineer tasks andtimes allotted to each phase of the engineering design.Lastly, several mentors pointed out that program administrators should expand the programactivities to expose the middle school youth to other areas within the STEM fields. For example,one mentor stated: expand more on the STEM aspect. Because it’s heavily [focused on] engineering and maybe mathematics, but less towards technology and science. Because we’re mainly doing robotics. Even in

Additionally, developing successful teachingpractices takes time, and thus there could be delayed effects of implementation on studentachievement. This lag time, either in implementation of consistent active learning teachingpractices or in quality of active learning teaching in the classroom, could be an explanation forthe observed results. As such, we plan on continuing this analysis in the future to assess forpotential changes over time.As noted above, the project employed the RTOP classroom observations to provide a reliableand objective account of which faculty made

The concrete research question of thisstudy is: Can high school information for underrepresented students and their ACT scores beused to predict the student’s academic performance? We hypothesize that, academic performancefrom underrepresented high schools cannot alone be used to predict the performance of a student.A student’s success is determined on motivational and personal characteristics24.
