Yonk, Ryan M.; Simmons, Randy T. – Higher Education Studies, 2023
In this Report on Practice, we explore both the process and an approach of engaging Undergraduate Students in research using a Research Institute setting. Drawing from our experience we conceive of the learning process as a series of interactions and transactions that face the same impediments as any transaction or interaction The approach, we…

Chamely-Wiik, Donna; Ambrosio, Anthony; Baker, Tracy; Ghannes, Amrita; Soberon, Jennie – Journal of the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning, 2023
Despite the growing interest to provide research engagement opportunities to undergraduate students, few studies have investigated how engagement "intensity" impacts measures of student success. A quasi-experimental, matched-subject design was employed to study differences between varying levels of research experience intensity (i.e.,…

Sprecher, Susan – College Teaching, 2023
Many departments in colleges and universities require a capstone course that involves the students conducting a research project. This author has had over 20 years of experience teaching such a capstone course and describes a flexible research method for student research projects -- the vignette study (an experiment embedded in a survey). She also…

Beck, Christopher W.; Cole, Megan F.; Gerardo, Nicole M. – Journal of Microbiology & Biology Education, 2023
Course-based undergraduate research experiences (CUREs) rapidly have become more common in biology laboratory courses. The effort to implement CUREs has stimulated attempts to differentiate CUREs from other types of laboratory teaching. The Laboratory Course Assessment Survey (LCAS) was developed to measure students' perceptions of how frequently…

Johnson, Sara L.; Bodner, George M. – Journal of College Science Teaching, 2023
Undergraduate research is a high-impact educational practice for which effective mentoring has been identified as a key factor in determining its success. Some researchers have argued that effective mentors help increase students' independence and ownership of the research project. This case study used conversation analysis to examine recorded…

Nita A. Eskew; Amanda L. Smythers; Bryant L. Hutson – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
Course based undergraduate research experiences (CUREs) enable students to connect theoretical coursework to the real-world application of scientific research, broadly increasing the accessibility of research to students. Similarly, service-learning courses connect undergraduate students to their surrounding communities by anchoring a component of…

Ruth, Alissa; Brewis, Alexandra; Beresford, Melissa; Smith, Michael E.; Stojanowski, Christopher; SturtzSreetharan, Cindi; Wutich, Amber – Scholarship and Practice of Undergraduate Research, 2023
The impact of undergraduate research experiences (UREs) is supported by evidence from physical and life science fields, especially when student-apprentices work in traditional laboratories. Within social sciences specifically, some excellent student outcomes associated with UREs adhere to non-lab-based modalities like course-based research…

Spry, Amber – Journal of Political Science Education, 2023
Universities are increasingly interested in providing courses that equip students with data science skills and engage experiential learning, particularly in the social sciences. However, these courses can be costly to implement and time-consuming for instructors to develop. This article describes an integrative learning model for teaching…

Richard Serbeh; David Forkuor; Prince Osei-Wusu Adjei; Kabila Abass; Foster Opoku; Bright Andoh – Studies in Higher Education, 2025
This paper explores students' perceptions of faculty-mentored research by drawing on the experiences of final year undergraduates sampled from a public university in Ghana. Embedded in a qualitative approach, the paper employs the cognitive interest and expectancy value theories, which model interests and satisfaction as predictors of affection…

Stephen B. DeLoach; Steven A. Greenlaw – Journal of Economic Education, 2025
The "Issues in Political Economy" (IPE) journal and related conference sessions were established in the early 1990s as outlets for undergraduates to present and publish peer-reviewed research in economics. By providing opportunities to attend and present at professional conferences, referee papers, and edit journal issues, IPE reflects…

The course-based research experience (CRE) with its documented educational benefits is increasingly being implemented in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics education. This article reports on a study that was done over a period of 3 years to explicate the instructional processes involved in teaching an undergraduate CRE. One hundred…

Faber, Courtney J.; Kajfez, Rachel L.; Lee, Dennis M.; Benson, Lisa C.; Kennedy, Marian S.; Creamer, Elizabeth G. – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2022
Undergraduate research experiences (UREs) in science and engineering offer a number of positive outcomes to the students who are able to participate, including increased retention, clarified career goals, and development of problem-solving skills. There have been a number of calls for research that investigates the experiences, identity, and…

Carpenter, Lauren; Nguyen, Bindi; Davis, Laura; Rowland, Susan – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2022
The employability of science graduates if of key concern. Employers report that STEM graduates lack appropriate employability skills and work experience, and science graduates take longer to find full-time work than graduates from many other programs. Undergraduate research experience (URE) is an important pedagogy that involves student immersion…
