This paper reportson an ongoing (2014-2016) RET project at the University of South Florida (USF).Our approach to developing a high quality RET professional development experience for STEMteachers is based on our beliefs that

The sizeable scholarship andcontinued support through their college career would make a very attractive recruitment tool.Many admitted URMs were choosing not to enroll at Cal Poly because other schools are able tooffer large scholarships, and several internal reports have recommended scholarships.7RecruitmentTargeting students who could best benefit from PEEPSThe NSF S-STEM scholarships are intended for academically talented, financially needystudents, and PEEPS has been designed to be offered

Instead of the PI givingthe building tours in year 4, a former Master’s student, who worked on this project and is nowworking in the construction industry, came back to lead the tours. The former Master’s studentalso led an informational session about his Master’s project, in which he analyzed the energy andcost savings of building’s cogeneration plant, and shared other potential building-related studentresearch projects. Consequently, current students learned how this project helped a formerstudent in his academic and professional career. The

The comparison between a CAVE and HMDs is summarized in Table 1. CAVEs provide a more immersive and spatial experience, enabling users to walk and interact naturally within the virtual environment, making them advantageous for collaborative learning and group projects. In contrast, HMDs, although immersive, may have limitations in physical movement and may require networked solutions for collaboration

Scholarship students,however, reported much lower levels of certainty of graduating (3.8 versus 5.4) andgetting a job in their desired discipline (2.5 versus 4.2). We note that the responses tocertainty of getting a job were low overall, perhaps pointing to a mismatch between theirundergraduate training and desired careers. For example, if students’ desired disciplinewas not the one in which they majored (i.e., they wanted to do humanitarian engineeringas an undergraduate but majored in chemical engineering because humanitarianengineering was not available).

Namely, Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) and Research Experiencesfor Teachers (RET).
