Online learning is an effective method of instruction, provided that devices andtechnology platforms are accessible and screen time is monitored and limited. WOCSECincludes workshops for standardized testing, the college application process, scholarshipresources, shadowing opportunities, summer internships and the required high school coursesrequired of most collegiate engineering programs. Students were given a pre-survey the first dayof the camp to assess their attitudes and perceptions towards entering STEM fields. In an effortto measure student’s change in perception, students completed a post survey. In addition to thepre-post survey, a semi-annual quantitative and qualitative
