Evaluation must occur at the university level to understand the full impact of undergraduate research (UR). UR assessment is often only completed at the individual program level because of limited technology, time, and/or resources. At our large research institution, we have been documenting a wide variety of research experiences annually since…

Kinzie, Jillian; BrckaLorenz, Allison – Journal of the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning, 2021
Attention to undergraduate research (UGR) is not surprising given its widespread appeal and evidence of educational benefit. Tracking participation and identifying equity gaps in UGR are important markers of access to and equity in educationally beneficial experiences. Information about students' exposure to elements of quality in UGR and how this…

Gunderson, Julie E. C.; MacDonald, Laura J.; Gunderson, William A. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2021
Research mentors can play an active role in helping their students develop oral communication skills by implementing formative assessment activities in their group meetings. A rubric can be used as a formative assessment tool that helps a student understand the achievement target they are working toward, where they are relative to the achievement…

Al-Nofli, Mohammed Abdullah – International Journal of Higher Education, 2021
The research-teaching nexus is an important factor in the enhancement of the quality of teaching and learning in higher education institutions. The purpose of the study was to explore undergraduate students' awareness and experiences of research in one faculty at Sohar University, Oman. Data were gathered from 240 undergraduate students using an…

Savic, Miloš; Kothapalli, Naga Rama; Lanier, Hayley C.; Freeman, Erin K.; Ratliff, Lisa; Hillermann, Emma; Martin, Courtney – Scholarship and Practice of Undergraduate Research, 2021
One of the most important actions in research and mentoring is to adjust expectations and provide emotional support when unexpected events occur. In this article, the authors investigate the impacts of COVID-19-based campus closures on undergraduate research and the student and faculty impressions of the adjustment. Through interviews with 28…

Hubbard, Katharine – Higher Education Pedagogies, 2021
There have been calls for Science Technology Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) education to become more interdisciplinary, reflecting the reality of contemporary research. However, communicating across disciplines is challenging. In this article, I explore what and how students read in the STEM disciplines. I provide an overview of key topics in…

Crowell, Bethany Anne Butson – ProQuest LLC, 2021
This qualitative study examined how university students learn to engage in the practices of scientific inquiry via research apprenticeships and how such experiences prepare them to be STEM literate. Surveys and interviews addressed two primary research questions: 1. What is the nature of interaction between student participant and faculty mentor?…

Jason D. Listman; Kim B. Kurz; Amanda Picioli; Paul Craig – CBE - Life Sciences Education, 2024
In recent years, an increasing number of deaf and hard of hearing (D/HH) undergraduates have chosen to study in STEM fields and pursue careers in research. Yet, very little research has been undertaken on the barriers and inclusive experiences often faced by D/HH undergraduates who prefer to use spoken English in research settings, instead of…

Hills, Melissa; Harcombe, Kimberley; Bernstein, Nina – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2020
Anticipated learning outcomes (LOs) were defined and used for the backward design of a Course-based Undergraduate Research Experience (CURE). These LOs reflect the inquiry-based nature of CUREs and capture key knowledge and skills inherent to scientific practice and essential in research. The LOs were used to plan a formative and summative…

Megan; Straub, Jacob N.; Bunnell, Sarah L.; Witkovsky-Eldred, Marissa – Scholarship and Practice of Undergraduate Research, 2020
Multisite, course-based undergraduate research experiences (CUREs) in the Ecological Research as Education Network (EREN) were assessed for impacts on student learning of collaborative science skills using a survey that could serve as a starting point for a validated assessment instrument for multisite CUREs. Pretests/posttests were administered…

St. Clair, Priscilla Cooke; Hunnicutt, Lynn; Travis, Karen – Journal of Economic Education, 2020
It is challenging for economics major programs to support an undergraduate research capstone where the goal is for all majors to complete a research project that creates new knowledge. Our program has found a way to achieve this for all of our majors in the face of resource constraints and varying student skill levels, and has done this without…

Nolan, Joseph R.; McConville, Kelly S.; Addona, Vittorio; Tintle, Nathan L.; Pearl, Dennis K. – Journal of Statistics Education, 2020
Undergraduate research experiences (UREs), whether within the context of a mentor-mentee experience or a classroom framework, represent an excellent opportunity to expose students to the independent scholarship model. The high impact of undergraduate research has received recent attention in the context of STEM disciplines. Reflecting a 2017…
