had a dual focus of app design and exposing students to differentaspects of technology. During the camps the students also went on tours of the Bucks’ stadiumand Motorola’s research and development facility. The combination of the partnership betweenthe organizations and the camp content resulted in a one-of-a-kind STEM camp forunderrepresented students to help motivate them towards a career in STEM.7.

. In terms of the three objectives for the research plan, the research study identified thefollowing findings: 1. Indicators of successful model implementation emerged from teacher’s feedback on how their classes changed through their use of the NEIR model. The changes observed by the teachers included: a. Projects that engage student in problem solving and the design process rather than kits or high structured activities b. Examples of how the teachers use NEIR in the classroom c. Classroom activities that required collaboration among all students, which included changes to classroom organization d. The teacher’s role in the classroom changed from providing answers and
engineering and physical computing; observe andinvestigate the processes of learning in the relevant contexts; understand the influence of intergenerationallearning on STEM culture, knowledge, and enthusiasm; and, determine how physical artifact creation andplace-based XR experiences contribute to social-emotional learning. Besides the main researchobjectives, the technological framework of the AR quilt application can serve as inspiration for othersocial-emotional learning tools utilizing XR technologies, or be directly modified to display other visualaudio experiences in a similar manner. The final application will be made publicly available and open formodification. References[1] G. Nugent, B

customs of African American people can enrich STEMeducation [8][14][15]. The takeaways from these proven approaches are (a) the need to reframe the causeof difficulty for African American students learning STEM, (b) embedding cultural knowledge of AfricanAmerican people increases African American students’ engagement and comprehension, and (c) AfricanAmerican cultural knowledge transforms conceptions of STEM knowledge and teacher practice. Adjapong& Emdin [16] and Brown’s [17] work has shown that when African American students are given theopportunity to participate in the learning setting in a way that is natural to them, previously excludedstudents engage at a high level, demonstrating competence and enthusiasm.One way for African American
