They had already received a training on resume building and the creation of e-portfolios, and the goal was to help other LIATS to complete theirs. Two planning sessions wereheld previous to each session to decide on logistics, contents, and practice. Then all the studentsparticipating in the PEARLS Program were equally distributed among the ten peer leaders.Training the leaders was done using a cognitive apprenticeship framework, as it works well withPLTL [13, 14].

The idea was to guide the teachers inthe use of tools and techniques that could be successfully utilized to engage the students inSTEM related topics and to also learn from them in order to develop best practices.Having a class of middle schoolers complete activities in the classroom or lab would requiremore adult to student interaction when conducting some of the planned experiments, so a reliablepool of volunteers was needed.

There were several reasons for this including a leadershiptransition at the school, lags in procurement and challenges in communication. Toovercome this hurdle, we ‘dusted off’ some older robotics materials from the HS closet towork with throughout the academic year. For the UMD curriculum, the program model was tested. At the service site, 1-2UMD students worked with a team of 3-4 HS students to design, build and program arobot. The course met once per week on Thursdays from 3:30 – 4:45 at the end of theschool day.

Modeling: The instructor models expert practice while describing and explaining each step of the process from planning (selecting materials/tools, organizing work space) through execution 3. Scaffolding: The instructor provides guidelines, steps, and parameters to structure student exploration. The student begins to conceptualize the task and begins planning. 4.

Metacognition is “thinking about thinking,” or “knowing about knowing,”and a metacognitive student is one who is aware of his/her learning processes and who can adjustthese processes as needed [6, 14]. Pintrich recommends that metacognitive-related instruction beembedded within usual lessons [15]. Tanner has done specific work in teaching biology studentsto use metacognition to plan, monitor, and evaluate their learning – all in the context of usualcourse practices, such as lecture, active learning exercises, homework assignments, and exams[16].

The choice or the decision to continue doing an activity,for example, is the result of someone’s motivation of doing that activity. Motivation has been exploredin relation to academic performance and career plans. Jones et al. studied the relationship amongexpectancies, values, achievement, and career plans for first year engineering students. They found thatstudents’ expectancy and value related beliefs decreased over the first year3 thus negatively influencingstudents’ retention into the second year of an engineering program.
