STEM transfer students exist. Programs such as summer bridge programs, mentoring,tutoring, learning communities, and other activities are fairly common at the undergraduate levelin STEM fields, and many of these programs have historically been funded by NSF STEP and S-STEM programs. Few systematic studies of interventions have been conducted, however. Localassessment data, typically published in conference papers and reports, support the efficacy of theseinterventions; however, no systematic reviews of the considerable literature have been found. Tosignificantly and positively impact representation of Hispanic scientists and engineers, we need acomprehensive synthesis to (a) develop patterns of successes and failures of Hispanic STEMtransfer

toinvestigate what could have gone “wrong” and “why”. This practice truly allowed students toexperience the entire scientific process from solid theoretical reasoning obtained from virtuallaboratories, to designing their own activities, to initial observations, and to follow-on activitiesbased on the results of earlier activities. As a consequence, combined virtual and physical hands-on activities greatly helped students to explore inquiry-based organic solar cell projects withenhanced reasoning, problem solving, and communication skills. Overall, students not onlyenjoyed this course but also appreciated the importance of collaborative learning.AcknowledgementThis work is supported by NSF TUES (1244707, 1244079) and NSF S-STEM SoLEAP program(1355678
