Mentorship plays an important role in the experiences of undergraduate researchers, and students may interact with multiple potential mentors in laboratory settings. Using qualitative methods, we explored the relationships between undergraduate students engaged in research and their mentors in faculty-led laboratories, with particular attention to…

This study investigates undergraduate students' attitudes towards and experiences with open education practices (OEP) in a research-based linguistics seminar. Data was collected through written assignments in which two groups of students in subsequent terms were surveyed on their willingness to publish (a) academic posters in open access (OA); (b)…

Ellison, Aaron M.; Patel, Manisha V. – SpringerBriefs in Education, 2022
This book is a complete guide for students on how to make the most of intensive, experiential research outside a college classroom. Engaging in research as an undergraduate can lead to successful and rewarding careers in science, technology, engineering, mathematics, and medicine (STEMM). Being successful in an undergraduate research experience…

Smith, Marie A.; Olimpo, Jeffrey T.; Santillan, Karen A.; McLaughlin, Jacqueline S. – Journal of Microbiology & Biology Education, 2022
The integration of course-based undergraduate research experiences (CUREs) into science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) laboratory curricula has provided new avenues to engage students at all levels in discovery-based learning. Empirical research demonstrates that CUREs have the potential to foster students' development of…

Leone, E. Austin; French, Donald P. – Journal of Microbiology & Biology Education, 2022
Disseminating and communicating scientific findings is an acknowledged part of the research experience, but few science programs include explicit undergraduate curricula for practicing oral science communication. Course-based undergraduate research experiences (CUREs) can provide opportunities for students to practice science communication, but…

Research experiences for undergraduate (REU) students are valuable for exploring STEM professions. Students from underrepresented groups and non-research institutions may not have the opportunities to engage in hands-on research. A primary goal of our Applied Plant Systems REU was to provide authentic research experiences for students who may not…

Beheshtian, Cheyenne; Garcia, Vanessa Elena; Zhu-Hui Ng, Tiffany; Alkhatib, Sarah; Quang, Erica; Cho, Kira Jinju; Nguyen, Timothy Duy; Le, Dustin Nguyen; Kadandale, Pavan – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2023
A large body of literature has established the benefits of undergraduate research experiences via the traditional apprenticeship model. More recently, several studies have shown that many of these benefits can be recapitulated in course-based undergraduate research experiences (CUREs) that are more scalable and easier for students to participate…

In-person undergraduate research experiences (UREs) promote students' integration into careers in life science research. In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic prompted institutions hosting summer URE programs to offer them remotely, raising questions about whether undergraduates who participate in remote research can experience scientific integration and…

Quintas-Hijós, Alejandro; Latre-Navarro, Lorena – Cogent Education, 2023
The Bologna Declaration (1999) and the implementation of the European Higher Education Area have opened a new panorama of learning. In Spanish Universities, an Undergraduate Dissertation (UD) is the final step on the developmental period of undergraduate students. However, there are usually no previous subjects during the undergraduate course that…

Donovan, Elizabeth A.; Wiglesworth, Lesley W. – PRIMUS, 2023
As studies repeatedly show the benefits of students participating in undergraduate research, off-campus research opportunities have become increasingly competitive. In order to provide our students with research experiences, students from Murray State University and Centre College engaged in a year-long cross-institutional undergraduate research…

Lisa Bradshaw; Julianne Vernon; Thomas Schmidt; Timothy James; Jianzhi Zhang; Hilary Archbold; Kenneth Cadigan; John P. Wolfe; Deborah Goldberg – Journal of Microbiology & Biology Education, 2023
Research has shown that undergraduate research experiences can have substantive effects on retaining students in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM). However, it is impossible to provide individual research experiences for every undergraduate student, especially at large universities. Course-based undergraduate research…

Grineski, Sara E.; Morales, Danielle X.; Collins, Timothy W. – CBE - Life Sciences Education, 2023
COVID-19 created unprecedented challenges for college students, highlighting the need to provide educational contexts that foster well-being. Summer undergraduate research experiences (SUREs) constitute a high-impact practice, yet little systematic knowledge exists about how the first surge of COVID-19 influenced undergraduate researchers'…

Danielle MacCartney; Kate Parsons – Frontiers: The Interdisciplinary Journal of Study Abroad, 2023
While leading students to Thailand for an eight-week undergraduate research experience, we observed challenges in stacking the high-impact practices of study abroad and undergraduate research and became compelled by the usefulness of an Ethics of Care approach to facilitate the kind of transformation these practices can have for students. We…
