Job Description:
BOAST High School Facilitator
Baltimore Online Algebra for Students in Technology (BOAST) is a
hybrid afterschool program for high school students who have an
interest in learning more about engineering while strengthening
their Algebra content knowledge. BOAST is funded by the National
Science Foundation (Grant no. 2005790) and administered by the
Center for Educational Outreach in the Whiting School of
Engineering at Johns Hopkins University. The mission of the Center
is to increase the number of youth pursuing STEM education and
careers. BOAST is designed to give school-based cohorts of students
who have recently completed Algebra I with a C or better an
opportunity to reinforce that knowledge by applying it to
engineering activities, allowing them to practice their math skills
while solving a variety of real-world challenges.
Students will work on self-paced projects consisting of online and
hands-on build components with deadlines for 2-4 hours per week.
These projects may take several weeks to complete depending on the
difficulty. The students will not need to be actively engaged at a
computer for the entire duration of this time. Students will also
attend 2-3 in-person sessions per month at their school. They will
also be offered a space at their school where they can work, meet
virtually with the online instructor, and collaborate within their
cohort at least once per week.
The BOAST Program Has Five Major Components

Supportive Structured Environment

Promotion of Career Interest
We are seeking a BOAST School Coordinator who will provide
technical support and ensure students are able to access a space
with fully-functioning computers and internet during designated
afterschool times. They will find and maintain a storage space for
BOAST material bins at the school site for the school year. This
role will also monitor interactions of the students to ensure it is
a safe, welcoming, supportive, and productive environment. When
guests such as BOAST Instructors and school-based mental health
professionals are invited to the BOAST classroom, BOAST School
Coordinator will welcome them and manage the classroom. When
students are struggling, the facilitator will encourage students to
engage with the instructor or fellow students or to use the
supplemental materials provided by BOAST online. If this individual
observes non-academic challenges in a student, they may refer the
student to the school-based mental health professional. They will
assist with collecting paperwork and delivering messages to
students, if needed. Lastly, will provide feedback to the BOAST
team for research as well as program improvement.
