The program commences with an orientation at which an overview of core programrequirements is provided and participants meet faculty, staff, and fellow young scholars. At thistime the essential university requirements such as laboratory safety, how to utilize universityresources and facilities, and public safety are addressed.

Design research methodology, similar to how designers (i.e.,architects, engineers, computer programmers) approach the creation of artifacts, seeks toinvestigate how designed interventions behave when subject to various, sometimes complex,conditions (Brown, 1992). The complex nature of researching students in variable-riddencontexts such as course design projects as proposed in this project lends itself well to designresearch, which was developed to address issues in studying learning phenomena in the realworld, and the desire to generate findings through formative evaluation of

the team works on different parts of project. Moreover, “real world” projects have no instructors or teaching assistants who are supposed to know the right answers of homework assignments. Students become accustomed, sometimes with encouragement from the teaching staff, to seek help during office hours. However, there is no office hour in the “real world”. ● Faculty members may have “new and crazy” ideas that may be too risky for graduate students who aim to finish their degrees within two (for MS) or five (for PhD) years.

Yet, the importance of sleep health is often underestimated in educational settings, as some courses may demand long hours of preparation and out-of-class work. This is especially evident in courses with physical work or laboratory activities where a set amount of time is not allocated for educational activities, and students may have to spend significant time outside

The idea of priming or activating priorknowledge such that students see the connections to prior courses and can transfer this learningwas discussed but not investigated [17].The overall goal of this study is to answer the following research questions (RQs): 1.

Broadening theparticipation of underrepresented groups underpins the first two goals. Teachers of K-12 STEM play a key role in meeting these goals; thus, teacher preparationand professional development are also greatly needed.
