My research question is "What are African American students attitudes towards STEM fields an how does it affect there success?'. I have already observed that the students in the back  the classroom who do no participate and have to be disciplined more often are the ones who have lower scores on homework and test. I plan to use the observations I've already made in my study. My data will include observations, a survey, quotes from students. I plan to give the students a survey asking them how they feel about STEM, if they want to pursue a STEM career, and I want to leave a blank portion for them to explain their feelings toward STEM. I want to use phrases that I have already and heard some of the students say about STEM and use quotes from interviews of randomly selected students. because a lot of the students do not like the program, I would also like to asses whether the lack of stimulation in lecture based STEM courses can aid in causing students to feel negatively towards STEM. I am not sure if I will have enough time to explore this. I plan to analyze my data by trying to find a correlation between attitude (positive or negative) to test scores and homework grades.
