But, Is It Working? Mentor Involvement in Informal Elementary STEM Programs. A Collective Case Study
Leeker, Jessica Rush – ProQuest LLC, 2020
Despite generous funding, the current data shows slow-moving demographical changes in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) fields, and little to no slowing in the decline of STEM-associated career interests in underserved communities (Leeker, Maxey, Cardella & Hynes, 2019). While a considerable amount has been written about the…

Gomoll, Andrea S.; Hmelo-Silver, Cindy E.; Tolar, Erin; Šabanovic, Selma; Francisco, Matthew – Educational Technology & Society, 2017
An important part of "doing" science is engaging in collaborative science practices. To better understand how to support these practices, we need to consider how students collaboratively construct and represent shared understanding in complex, problem-oriented, and authentic learning environments. This research presents a case study…
