    Hi Dr. Broadway.  Excellent presentation and program here.  If I am understanding your question appropriately, a program such as the Science Education Partnership Award funds pre-college STEM education preparation programs and informal STEM programming.  Try this program, http://nihsepa.org/, but we can definitely talk more about other programs like POSSE, etc.

    Let's talk.  My number is 504-816-4725.  I am in Louisiana which is central Standard Time.  I am only in the office M-W, and this is graduation week.

    Programs like this are always essential for STEM persistence!  I have a few questions/comments:

    • Once students complete the program do they maintain a team of advisors to provide wrap-around support services through their other classes.
    • Could you say a bit more about your strategies to support study skills; many students are just overwhelmed with the wealth of information in STEM courses, but are not familiar with how to study in groups, for example.
    • In addition to hands-on learning experiences, are you able to extend longer-term internship options at DIllard University or offer support in internship applications at other institutions
    • What career professional development education do you provide, if any, as part of the preparation courses? part of engaging students in STEM is also informing them of the diversity of career paths within STEM (extending beyond medical school and teaching).

    Yes and we have peer tutors and they are assigned t me as their advisor.

    We have study group led by peer students/tutors

    Yes we do seek internships for students ant other institutions as well as Dillard.

    Dr. Broadway, 

    We are at ASU and we focus on the experiences of the Black students in higher academia. I think it would be great if we can find some time to talk and possibly collaborate in the future. dmaitra1@asu.edu/Brooke.Coley@asu.edu

    I just want to comment on this video and the wonderful opportunity that Dr. Broadway and her colleagues are providing these students.  I love the four pillars that were shared.  The last pillar, self-efficacy is a major component of retaining URM students in STEM.  I love that programs such as DSL project at Dillard is allowing for those students to see the possibilities not only in pursuing their studies at DU but also pursuing STEM as a career.  Keep up the great work!

    Great video - and I loved the inclusion of outcome measures in your short description. I'd love to know what your plans are for evaluation in the short and long term?

    Just wanted to take a minute to comment and say that what you guys are doing here is wonderful. This is a great way/opportunity for kids to really get involved with hands on experience within STEM. Inserting videos of them involved and engaged did a great job with getting your message across!

    Great video Dr. Broadway!

    Is your program implemented during the summer prior to students' first year so they can be better prepared for the STEM gatekeeping courses? If so, how long is the program and how much time they spend in each of the areas (biology, pre-cal, chemistry, etc.)?

    Thanks!

    Great presentation!!

    I was curious if there was any room on this project to research students sense-making around STEM ideas to unpack what are common vexations (challenges) students have in understanding key STEM concepts that may impact the matriculation within STEM courses?

    Yes they leave the program and inter a research appointment with an on campus or off campus mentor.
