Discovery Approach to Science enHancement


The Discovery Approach to Science enHancement (DASH) program is centered in the Chicago Urban Area and funded as part of The National Science Foundation's CRCM effort with help from the Frankel Foundation. The purpose of the Chicago CRCM Coalition -- Access 2000 -- is to increase the participation of traditionally underrepresented groups in science, engineering, and math (SEM) disciplines. Our summer DASH Program is structured to give rising high school sophomores and juniors a chance to get involved in "hands on" science and engineerin g projects. We also introduce computer programming and communication skills. The first two weeks of the program revolve around experiments involving Newtonian physics: velocity, acceleration, and motion. The second two weeks revolve around an engineerin g project: designing and manufacturing a rocket which will meet certain performance requirements.
