So far, data has shown that most of the students that startedan STEM major, stayed on that major at least for the freshman year.Summer CampsThere is a wide variety of summer camps. Some of them are designed to recruit and promoteuniversities1-3. The majority of these summer camps focus on promoting programs to minoritygroups in order to spark some interest4-6. Other camps are designed to prepare students for futurecourses that they will take during the freshman year7-8. It needs to be clear that there is nothingwrong with these programs.

This interaction usuallytakes the form of questions and comments that seek clarifications, elaborations, and additionalexamples. The instructor attempts to answer as many of those requests as possible, but is alsoexpected to cover a number of pre-determined subjects in each lecture. Lectures are accompaniedby laboratory-based activities (labs). In each lab the students, individually or in groups, arerequired to carry out certain experiments with real components and instruments, as well asdesign, build and test, their own simple or complex circuits.
