richdescriptions of lived experience, is also the main limitation of this research approach. A singleinterview transcript may be 20 to 50 pages or more and require hours of qualitative data analysis.This limitation makes traditional approaches to narrative analysis inherently unsuitable forcapturing large numbers of stories in real-time, and examining changes across a system overtime. SenseMaker offers a way to overcome this limitation through “link[ing] qualitative andquantitative data that can be assessed in parallel” [2].Complex systems theoryAccording to Van der Merwe, et al.

By running wires off the coil, students are able to hook the speaker up to a radio andlisten. The activity can be extended to include equations for advanced students. Students mayvary the amount of current and monitor the changes in the speaker’s movement. They shouldthen check if the results match what is expected using the equation of a coil.Assessment MethodologyIn order to aid in the assessment of program outcomes, the Institute participants were asked tofill out an evaluation survey at the conclusion of the Institute.
