thedefinition of a team and discuss the features of successful teams. Students often want to be inteams with peers they are comfortable working. In the real world, however, teams undergo the‘forming’ stage with members whose skills are necessary to complete the project [8]. Therefore,team members may not be familiar with each other. After getting to know each other, membersusually move to the ‘storming’ stage, where they engage in project work and challenge eachother’s boundaries and expectations [8]. At this stage, they start to understand each other bydiscovering their skills, weaknesses, and personalities. Teams can only move to the ‘norming’and ‘performing’ stages after successfully going through the ‘storming’ stage. [8]. However,student teams

NSF S-STEM Track 3: Scaling Up Student Success through Broadening Participation Beyond our S-STEM CohortIntroductionFirst year programs in engineering education are commonly used to help improve studentsuccess and retention at engineering colleges. Such attendant programs often involve studentinterventions such as learning communities, student mentoring, and bridge programs or bootcamps that provide external motivations and supplementary learning objectives aimed at helpingfirst year students in engineering succeed academically, [1]. Moreover, urban universities oftenhave student populations with a wide array of hurdles that impede their success in engineeringand STEM fields. Of these includes financial instabilities

learning goals for pre-college engineering are stillbeing contested. One argument, which is promoted in science standards, is that engineeringdesign provides an authentic context to apply science concepts [4] [5] [6]. However, others arguethat this represents too narrow a view of engineering and promotes misconceptions [7] [8]. Inresponse to these concerns, the American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE) andAdvancing Excellence in P12 Engineering Education introduced a Framework for P-12Engineering Learning [9]. This framework outlines learning goals for engineering literacy thatmove beyond a narrow focus on practices, including engineering habits of mind and knowledge.In addition, the authors call for further research to scaffold learning

Although the results were encouraging, the analysis revealed that lessthan 1 in 4 FAMU students completed the pre-engineering program successfully. A deductioncan be made that completion of the pre-engineering program is a good predictor for persistenceto an engineering degree completion. Based on this information, it was determined that bysignificantly increasing the percentage of students who complete the pre-engineering program,there could be an increase in students that persist to graduation. The problem arose of how toincrease the number of black students that persist through the engineering curriculum.A recent
