similarpattern to the ToSLS, so there is no reason to suggest that the decline is due to the ToSLS itself.In addition, grades for students in these classes serve as an objective measure that most studentsare learning this material, they are just not translating this learning to their performance on post-tests.5. CONCLUSIONWe conclude that students, both STEM and non-STEM, indicate that their scientific skills andknowledge increase over the course of a semester in which they participate in a CAB project.This is reflected in the high pass rates of students enrolled in all of these classes, whichobjectively assess (through a variety of means) that students have learned the assigned material.The anomalous findings from the ToSLS and the Alternative SL

However, for the Scholars who did not achieve a C, the PI ran a mini-course after the semesterended, to raise their skill levels to C level. Out of the two, one was able to continue to the next course,while it was recommended to the other, that he change his major to a two-year electrical technologymajor, which he eventually did. It should be noted that the student who did not achieve the skills neededto continue in the major, also scored very poorly on our department’s math pre-Calculus assessment tests,even though he scored at least a C in Pre-Calculus, Calculus I and Calculus II, which indicates that gradesdo not always reflect

The basic electric connectivity between the mainpower node and the utility (distribution) nodes was tested and verified to reflect the circuitdesign. Another important operational consideration is the heating of the board due the highcurrent it delivers from the battery to the motors- through the electronic speed controllers (ESC)-and other utilities.

According to her, coalition is ● a present and existing vision and practice that reflects an orientation to others and a shared commitment to change; ● ... the ‘horizon’ that can reorganize our possibilities and the conditions of

that this phenomenon reflected that students involved in project-based learning activities were more inclined to regard themselves as a part of the engineeringcommunity.The students in Motamedi’s study [19] tended to prefer the flipped classroom because of itsflexibility with their schedules, their ability to watch lectures when they felt motivated tolearn and when they knew that they would be able to stay focused, and their increasedengagement with short video content. A significant disadvantage was their inability to askquestions while learning the material; thus, students would go to class feeling confused andill-prepared.

Similarly, educational programs could improve the level of social support available toSTEM academics from minoritized racial/ethnic groups.

We also needed to update IRB protocols toinclude remote interviews as well as update the interview protocol to ask about any positive andnegative experiences the students had due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Consequently, weinterviewed cohort 2 (AY 2020-2021) in the spring of 2021. We then interviewed students fromcohort 1 (AY 2019-2020) in the fall of 2021.
