Turner, Galen E.; Deemer, Eric D.; Tims, Heath E.; Corbett, Krystal; Mhire, Jeremy – Electronic Journal of Science Education, 2014
The authors empirically examine the effectiveness of an intervention program designed to facilitate interest in cyber science among high school students (N = 60). Pretest-posttest and mediation designs were used to model self-report data that were collected at pre-camp, during a cyber-related task at mid-camp, and at post-camp. An analysis of…
