A Study of Long Term Peer Engagement - The ALPHAS Program

We present the format, the engagement methods, and the assessment scheme for a year-long SPS outreach program at a local elementary school. The ALPHAS (Alta Loma Peers Helping the Advancement of Science) Program's primary goal is to identify deficiencies in science objectives and provide enrichment activities through the participation of the SPS Peer Pressure Team in order to help correct the identified deficiencies. For this thirty-week long program we present initial data and identify projected outcomes.
