programs. Differentexperiences, values, beliefs, and attitudes that are a result of the intersection of multipledimensions of identity are allowed to naturally separate themselves. Furthermore, using thisprofile analysis allowed for new patterns to emerge that would have been previouslyoverlooked. For example, if two groups of respondents were distinct from each other in theattitudinal map but were similar along all measured axes of diversity (e.g., gender andrace/ethnicity), it is a signal that the separation between the groups is the result of anintersection with some unconsidered dimension(s) of attitudes or personal characteristics.Because TDA does not presuppose the qualitative or demographic information about thestudents it analyzes, the

First, all agreed that program participation was a beneficial and positive experience and thatthe relationship developed with the City of Elkhart was an important part of the learningexperience. The cohort also agreed that including students in Elkhart Catalyst that came from thefocus neighborhood(s) was important to the success of the data project as well as to the learningoutcomes. Nonetheless, the degree of academic diversity, at least in a small cohort, was both achallenge and an attribute. An additional challenge was that interns had some frustration with thelack of tangible projects in the community in the first year.Although any particular improvements suggested were not necessarily mentioned by everyone inthe cohort, there were a
the general instructional objectives of thefreshman course.The project was titled “Introduction to Big Data Analytics: Analyzing Tweets with Matlab”. Theinstructor provided the students with a Matlab code that was designed to facilitate applyingSentiment Analysis to tweets. For example, the code can be used to (1) identify tweets thatcontain one or more specific keywords and (2) create a histogram of words used in these tweets,in order to identify recurring themes in tweets that mention the keyword(s). The final deliverablefor the project was a report in which students detailed how they used the Matlab code to answer anumber of open-ended questions, as well as an introductory section in which students discussedthe importance and applications

Year I and II Growth for P5:Before participating in the our CTE course, P5 had some experience in Making through workingwith his uncle on small everyday electronics projects like reassembling smart phones or repairingvarious electronics in their ranch. Owing to P5’s experience in electronics, he felt comfortablewith taking on the role of project manner for the first production cycle for year 2. During the firstyear, P5 was quiet and introverted, yet he demonstrated a significant interests towards thetechnology-centered elements of the production process, often partnering with P4 in theseactivities. While P5 was comfortable in technology oriented roles, when tasked to take onproduction management, he was fully engaged in the role for the
