    513 Words  | 3 Pages

    In 2013 at Old Dominion University for four years of college, only 23.1 percent of students graduated, five years of college, only 45.2 percent of students graduated, and for six years of college, only 51.2 percent of students graduated. It is kind of upsetting that not many students graduate at the same time as everyone else. One of the reasons why is that certain students do not take their work seriously at all. But, if a student works late, it would be hard for them to get their schoolwork done by the day it is due. As a Thomas Nelson Community College student, I need to get my degree as soon as everyone else does, even though college is difficult.

  • Evaluating The Effectiveness Of After School STEM Programs In Schools

    531 Words  | 3 Pages

    After-school STEM programs provide children with these learning opportunities through either teaching methods or hands-on experience. Many of these STEM programs try to give children the best resources to use for their activities but these resources are not easy to obtain, so the children cannot recreate the activities they learned at the program at home. Because of this, parents may not be able to see if their child retained anything for the STEM program they enrolled them in, and cannot see a reason why they should keep their child in a program they are not retaining knowledge and skills in. STEMovative hopes to break down this barrier by using materials that children can easily find at their home or in a store and be easily recreated by themselves or with the help of a parent. This will allow the child to create the things they learn in our program and show their parents that they have
