The findings of the present study suggest that IT/STEM experiences facilitated in the FI3T program significantly impacted urban high school students’ common technology skills such as using computers, internet, productivity tools, and Web 2.0 tools. Perhaps more importantly, the program created significant positive impact on students’ IT/STEM technology skills (e.g., GPS, GIS, robotics programming). In most cases, the FI3T program also improved urban high school students’ frequency of common and advanced IT/ STEM technology use when those technologies are available to them. Specific to the learning experiences gained in the FI3T program, two main areas of impact regarding frequency of use included science- and engineering-related IT/STEM toolsets. As the finding of this study suggests and other studies reveal, when low-income urban students are exposed to well-designed inquiry-based materials that draw upon IT skills in sophisticated ways, youth not only learn science better, they become IT-fluent (Edelson 2001; Songer et al. 2002)
