SEA provides one-week camps for middle and high school students on the UMBC Campus. These camps help kids to stay engaged, have fun learning new skills and knowledge, and get excited about higher education at UMBC.</span></p>
    <p>These SEA CIRTL Fellows will develop and implement a SEA one (1) week course in an engineering topic of their choice with guided mentorship in Fall 2023 and Spring 2024 and implement the course with SEA in Summer 2024. Fellows will be required to attend a variety of sessions that help them solidify their course ideas, learn about teaching approaches that are accessible and engaging for high school and middle school students, and plan their courses. This will all count toward a CIRTL certificate, which is a nationally recognized teaching certificate! Upon teaching the course in Summer 2024, Fellows will be paid a minimum of $1000/week for 1 or 2 weeks, with an opportunity for more depending on enrollment for the course.</p>
    <p><span>Note:</span> Courses are run as half-day camps for a week (5 days), and Fellows will be able to choose two weeks of these five options:  June 24-28, July 8-12, July 15-19, July 22-26, July 29 – August 2.</p>

<Title>Writing Tip of the Week</Title>

<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">Be concise. <div>When it comes to technical writing, many students feel that they have to "dress up" their writing or make their word choices more sophisticated. This can be appropriate in certain situations, but generally, using more complex words confuses the reader and makes them work harder to understand your argument. For example, many students will use the word "utilize" instead of "use" when in reality, these two words mean the same things and one is much easier to understand.</div>

<Title>Petra Janka has two paintings selected&#160;for the 2023 NextGen</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content"><span><p><span>Petra Janka, third year Linehan Artist Scholar majoring in Graphic Design, recently had two paintings exhibited in the Visarts gallery in Rockville, MD. We asked her about her artistic experience at UMBC and being chosen for the exhibit.</span></p>
    <p><span><br></span></p>
    <p><span><em>How did you find out about this opportunity?</em></span></p>
    <p><span><br></span></p>
    <p><span>I found this opportunity through CIRCA's social media page (Instagram).</span></p>
    <p><span><br></span></p>
    <p><span><em>How has your time here at UMBC supported your growth as an artist?</em> </span></p>
    <p><span><br></span></p>
    <p><span>UMBC facilitated my artistic growth by enabling me to create works that foster community engagement and connect me with individuals who share similar interests and a passion for art. Being a member of the Linehan Artist Scholar Program means much more to me than just a fantastic opportunity to pursue my goals; the Linehan community has evolved into my artistic family.</span></p>
    <p><span><br></span></p>
    <p><span><em>Could you talk a little about the process behind your work The Infinity of Joy?</em>   </span></p>
    <p><span><br></span></p>
    <p><span>I had two paintings exhibited: The Infinity of Joy &amp; The Tropical Sun. Both had the same main idea - to elicit positive emotions in anyone who saw them. They were inspired by the sun, summer, and joy. Everyone has a different vision of life. See, hear, and feel things differently. It's all about perspective and what you let come through. This is why it is so challenging and at the same time so wonderful to be an artist.</span></p>
    <p><span><br></span></p>
