The AusPrEP program is part of a $238,000 grant to Huston-Tillotson from the U.S. Department of Education for math and science initiatives. This grant hasinitiated additional funding from industry. Applied Materials, a semiconductor equipmentmanufacturing company, awarded HT $20,000 to add to the AusPrEP program. We plan onleveraging on the success of this program to add modules to it specifically related to nuclearscience and engineering issues.

In addition, we noticed that the group activity component of the classesencouraged sociability and idea synthesis among peers. This CS community outreachprogram motivated us to extend the effort to teach science concepts using the Processinglanguage. This may potentially promote sociability, creativity, and empowerment inSTEM among middle school students. Specifically, we plan to use the Processingprogramming language to facilitate learning of biological and chemical concepts, sincesuch concepts can be difficult for students to visualize from a textbook.

, demonstratinga competency in an engineering lab requires instructions or a procedure. Based on the procedure, wepredict a certain outcome when procedural steps are performed as prescribed. The outcome of thedemonstration (observation) is compared to prediction (expectation). A noticeable difference betweenobservation and expectation may require revision of the procedure (theory) then applying it again in orderto gain knowledge. A robust methodology for acquiring knowledge is the Deming Cycle of Plan-Do-Study-Act orPDSA. Deming refers to it as the Shewhart Cycle [6]. Figure 4 shows that the PDSA cycle is continuousand thus guarantees the temporal dimension for the theory of knowledge. In other words, knowledge isgained after each cycle and future
