| Abstract: |
In this paper, we consider the ways in which out-of-school educational programs extend support to young high-achieving African-American students with an interest in STEM. We present a qualitative case study of three female African-American students enrolled in a mathematics summer camp intended for high school students interested in higher-level mathematics. We report on how these students found the program impacted their own growth and development in several specific domains. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
