Summer Measurement Project Consent Form – Please sign and return

Dear Parent/Guardian,

This program is taking part in a city-wide program evaluation project (the “Measurement Project”)

during Summer 2018. This Measurement Project, managed by Boston After School & Beyond, Inc.

(“BASB”), seeks to understand the quality of out-of-school and expanded learning time programming in

Greater Boston and how programs support student skill development and learning. Several research

organizations will help with the Measurement Project: National Institute on Out-of-School Time

(“NIOST”), the RAND Corporation, and ExpandED Schools (collectively, “Research Organizations”), and

the Boston Public Schools. All data collected will be kept confidential. By signing this Consent, I agree

to participate in the Measurement Project.

The following activities and information relates to Upward Bound or Upward Bound Math Science

students who agree to participate in Measurement Project:

Researchers and specialists will observe some summer classrooms and activities.

Assessments such as the Survey of Afterschool Youth Outcomes including Teacher, Staff, and Youth versions of the assessment and the Assessment of Afterschool Program Practices Tool will be used during programming. Students will be asked to fill out a survey called NIOST Survey on Afterschool Youth Outcomes (SAYO-Y). The SAYO-Y is a 10 minute paper or online survey which asks students questions about their program experiences, sense of competence, and future plans. Students will complete the survey once during the last week of the program. Participation in the survey is voluntary and may stop at any time without penalty. A study researcher will train the students on how to participate in the survey. Individual survey responses will not be shared with afterschool program staff, partner organizations, or any other organization or individual. Should you have any questions about this survey, use of these data, or questions about your rights, feel free to contact Dr. Georgia Hall at (781) 283-2530 or [email protected] or Nancy L. Marshall at [email protected].

By signing this Consent, I authorize:

1. Boston University through its Upward Bound programs to share the following information about

me with Boston After School & Beyond, the Boston Public Schools (“BPS”), National Institute on

Out-of-School Time, the PEAR Institute, program funders or a network of program providers

(together, the “BASB Parties”) for purposes of analysis and for collaborative citywide evaluation:

name, date of birth, race, ethnicity, gender, school attended, current grade, home zip code;

to the extent such data is available to Upward Bound at Boston University: Boston Public Schools student identification number, State Assigned Student Identifiers, limited English proficiency status; and

program enrollment and attendance records, including hours attended per day.

2. The Boston Public Schools to share the following information about me with Boston Afterschool

and Beyond and NIOST:

2

school attended, race, gender, grade, age/date of birth, English language learner (ELL)

status, home zip code, school-year attendance (days present, days tardy, rate), test

scores, State Assigned Student Identifier (SASID) and Boston Public School ID.

In public reporting of research findings, only group data will be reported. At no time will a public report

identify an individual student in any way. The only exception to confidentiality will be in the case of any

information disclosed that indicates a child is in any danger. Should that occur, protocols for such

disclosure are in place for protection of participants.

I give Boston University permission to collect the student state and school ID number from my child’s

school to be used for access to student records. Boston University will provide services to my child

regardless of parent/guardian consent for student records.

Please complete, sign, and return:

STUDENT CONSENT: I hereby permit Boston University to release the aforementioned information

Upward Bound Math Science at Boston University Description of Classes and Activities

June 24 to August 3, 2018

Upward Bound Math Science at Boston University is a higher education opportunity program funded by a TRIO grant from the United States Department of Education and by Boston University. Fifty (50) students participate in the program from June 24 to August 3. Students attend one of four target high schools or live in one of five target neighborhoods. The target high schools are Boston Green Academy, Charlestown High, Chelsea High, and Josiah Quincy Upper School. The target neighborhoods are Chelsea, Dorchester, East Boston, Mattapan, and Roxbury. This will be the program’s eleventh summer at Boston University. Our Math Science Program joins our traditional Upward Bound program, which will serve 86 students and operate for its twenty-ninth summer at Boston University. PROGRAM DESCRIPTION: The main goal of the program is to enrich the academic skills of our students in order to better prepare them for college. We believe in a holistic approach to education, in other words, in focusing on all aspects of the students' development. Thus, the summer program activities are designed to promote intellectual development as well as emotional, moral, and social development. All students attend 16 hours of instruction each week: 4 hours - Literature and Writing 4 hours - Mathematics 4 hours - Science 2 hours - Of either Latin, MCAS Preparation, or SAT Preparation 2 hours - Computer Science In addition, all students participate in the following activities: *Science Wednesdays – 7 hours per week.

*Field trips and group projects, which promote cultural and academic enrichment, cooperation and group spirit. *Study hall and discussion classes with tutors - 6 hours per week.

*Individual tutor/student conference - 0.5 hours per week. *Personal and academic counseling as appropriate. *Sports and recreational activities - 2 hours per week. Six undergraduate students participate as full-time tutors. They provide tutoring in all subject areas and assistance in developing students’ study, time management, and note taking skills. Additionally, they serve as team leaders, peer counselors, and positive role models for Upward Bound Math Science students. Upward Bound Math Science students reside in B.U. dormitories during the week and return home for the weekends. An 11 p.m. curfew with a midnight in your room/lights out policy is enforced. Most of our tutors and a dormitory supervisor live in the dormitories in addition to a Boston University residence assistant on each floor. Our tutors and dormitory supervisor enforce the lights out policy, assist students in waking up on time in the morning, and promote a positive home environment in the residence hall. The director of Residence Life, the resident assistants (RA’s), and the residential safety staff will enforce all Boston University rules and regulations.

ACADEMIC PROGRAM: Major Courses (meet four days a week). Literature & Writing: Students take four hours of literature & writing class per week. The Stanford 9 Reading Test and a writing test are administered as a pre-test to all students to assess vocabulary, reading comprehension and writing levels. Students are placed into courses based on the results of the tests. Grade level does not determine student placement. All students read Macbeth by William Shakespeare. To reinforce their reading of the play, students attend a live performance of the play presented by Shakespeare & Company in Lenox, Massachusetts. In addition, students read additional works which will be selected by UBMS teachers and administrators. Instruction and homework focus on comprehension of plot, character development, vocabulary, treatment of theme, critical analysis, and acquisition of a basic understanding of the poetics and dramatic structure. Grammar review is also an integral part of instruction along with an emphasis on style and point of view. Students work closely with writing teachers to discuss their papers and works in progress. Students receive written and oral critiques from their teachers. Science: Students take four hours per week. Four levels of science are offered: biology, anatomy and physiology, chemistry, and physics. Course content is designed to give students a preview of their science course during the 2018-19 school year. There is a weekly laboratory component for each level offered. Mathematics: All students take four hours of math per week. Five levels are offered: advanced algebra I, geometry, algebra II, pre-calculus, and calculus. Course content is designed to give students a preview of their math course during the 2018-19 school year. Minor Courses (meet two days a week): Computer Science: All students will take a computer science course, which is designed to introduce some component of computer programming. Each student takes one of the following courses: SAT Preparation: Two sections are offered: SAT math or critical reading. Students take two hours of one section per week. Students will review test taking strategies, complete practice test sections, and utilize online practice materials. Latin: Students learn about the Roman Civilization and the basics of Latin. The course also introduces students to the impact Latin words have on the Romance languages and on English. MCAS Preparation: Two sections are offered: MCAS mathematics preparation and MCAS English language arts preparation. Students take either two hours of English language arts preparation or two hours of mathematics preparation per week. Students also practice on mini-tests.

Course Grading: In all courses students will complete homework, take quizzes, a mid-term exam and a final. Two grade and written reports are issued to students, one after the third week, and one at the end of the program. Science Wednesdays & Senior Internships: Students will participate in hands-on and exploratory science activities, as well as opportunities to work in research labs and to learn about careers in science. This model provides integration with academic researchers at Boston University and offers expanded opportunities for program participants to prepare in greater depth for study in the STEM fields (science, technology, engineering and math) at the post-secondary level. Some rising 12th grade students will have the opportunity to apply to do a research internship in lieu of a Science Wednesday Lab. Spaces are limited for research internships. Details to apply for internships will be sent to qualifying students. TUTORING TEAMS: Six undergraduate students work as full-time tutor/counselors. The tutors receive a week of training before the program starts. The training focuses on the various facets of their role and is led by the program's director, the academic & college counselor, the academic resource counselor, and the dormitory supervisor. In addition, during the program, the tutors have regularly scheduled meetings with the teachers and administrative staff. Each tutor is assigned a team of 8-9 students for the six-weeks of the program. Each team is multi-ethnic, includes students at each grade level and, to the extent possible, an equal distribution of males and females. The tutor maintains close contact with each member of his/her team through the following activities:

*Four hours of weekly tutor team meetings to support students work on Science Wednesdays & Team Projects

*Weekly individual student/tutor conferences *Six hours of study hall *Recreational activities *Field trip participation The tutors play a pivotal role in the program. They provide the students with academic assistance, personal and emotional support, and first-hand information about college life. They often serve as liaisons between the students and the teachers. Additionally, tutors supervise students during team meetings and assist in students’ preparation of the team projects that are presented at the end of the summer. Tutors evaluate their students after the first three weeks and at the end of the program. Students also write evaluations of their tutors. STUDY HALL: Study hall takes place on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays from 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM. All students are required to attend study hall. Each Tutor Team will be assigned to a classroom during study hall time. All Tutors are present at Study Hall each day and each Teacher attends Study Hall one day per week to assist students with work and to answer questions. ADDITIONAL ACTIVITIES: Students participate in the following activities designed to help promote team spirit and cooperation, open-minded attitudes toward the multi-ethnic student population of the program, and a social consciousness in the context of the Boston community: Prindle Pond Outdoor Education Center over-night program at Prindle Pond Outdoor Education Center in Charlton, MA: This field trip will be held from Tuesday, June 26 to Wednesday, June 27. Students and tutors will spend the night in the cabins of the Prindle Pond

Outdoor Education Center. The purpose of this trip is to build ties within the Upward Bound and Upward Bound Math Science community, to build effective team-work, and to improve motivation, and self-confidence. Activities will include but are not limited to low-ropes course activities, team-building games, and possible access to swimming and a camp fire. Sports and Recreational Activities: Tuesday and Thursday evenings from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. are reserved for sports and recreational activities. Students sign-up for activities, which will meet on either Tuesday or Thursday. Activities include: soccer, basketball, volleyball, strength & conditioning, mock trial, and arts & crafts. The academic resource counselor and the tutors supervise the activities.
