A brief presentation mid-morning on Saturday is the final activity except for cleaning up the lab or classroom. Everyone should be finished by noon on Saturday. While not mandatory, staying on campus throughout camp is encouraged, because of the role-modeling that takes place. It's important that the girls see as many women as possible doing everyday normal things besides being professionals. Total time for one workshop is 9.5 hours, distributed in 1-2 hour increments throughout 3 days.
Most sessions are one and one-half hours in length.
Workshop should be designed to be very active and hands-on. A suggested approach that works well with this age group is to focus on the presentation of a problem and sufficient information necessary to solve it, encouraging girls to work in groups and experiment with problem-solving as a team effort. Thus, the instructor teaches the same 9.5-hour workshop twice during camp, totaling 19 hours of actual classroom time. That afternoon is spent in an organizational staff meeting, and in preparing the labs. An instructor is not required to attend the field trip unless it is one she requested because of its relevance to her workshop.
