Examples include refusing to participate, vocally objecting in the class to doing theactivity, giving low course evaluations, and/or distracting other students from participating.There are, however, effective strategies instructors can use to reduce student resistance [15, 16,17]. These strategies fall into three categories: planning, explanation, and facilitation [18].Planning strategies can be used during the development of an activity, in how it is organized, andhow to evaluate its effectiveness. Explanation strategies emphasize how an instructor can framethe purpose and the goal of the activity. Facilitation

Due to risingcosts of room, board, tuition, and fees at our institution, we have revised the target to 20 studentsper summer. In the first three years of the program, we have supported 54 students with themedian award size of $6,000 in Year 1 (average $5,762) and $6,500 in Years 2 and 3 (averaging$5,945 and $6,043 in Years 2 and 3, respectively).

All students indicated their meetings with the S-STEM Student Success Coach were extremely or somewhat informative. Also, success rate of S-STEM students is higher than the other students in all STEM courses (e.g. calculus I, engineering statics, physics I). At the present, the actual impact of the Student Success Coach on academic success remains to be determined as incoming ACT scores indicate that the S-STEM cohort is academically better prepared. Further analysis is planned to investigate this. Additional updated and detailed information will be provided on our poster.Introduction
