Findings from survey an…

  • An inclusive Research and Education Community (iREC) model to facilitate undergraduate science education reform

    Open AccessDenise L Monti, Julia C Gill et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Education2024

    Over the last two decades, there have been numerous initiatives to improve undergraduate student outcomes in STEM. One model for scalable reform is the inclusive Research Education Community (iREC). In an iREC, STEM faculty from colleges and universities across the nation are supported to adopt and sustainably implement course-based research – a form of science pedagogy that enhances student learning and persistence in science. In this study, we …

  • The professional identity of STEM faculty as instructors of course-based research experiences

    Open AccessDavid I Hanauer, David Hanauer et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Education2024

    The professional identity of scientists has historically been cultivated to value research over teaching, which can undermine initiatives that aim to reform science education. Course-Based Research Experiences (CRE) and the inclusive Research and Education Communities (iREC) are two successful and impactful reform efforts that integrate research and teaching. The aim of this study is to explicate the professional identity of instructors who imple…

  • Models of classroom assessment for course-based research experiences

    Open AccessDavid I Hanauer, Tong Zhang et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Education2023

    Course-based research pedagogy involves positioning students as contributors to authentic research projects as part of an engaging educational experience that promotes their learning and persistence in science. To develop a model for assessing and grading students engaged in this type of learning experience, the assessment aims and practices of a community of experienced course-based research instructors were collected and analyzed. This approach…
