The authors provide a brief case study of a three-strategy approach for teaching undergraduate research methods that (1) incorporates active learning assignments and discussion-based learning, (2) integrates a cross-discipline and cross-method faculty guest discussion facilitators series, and (3) focuses on the challenges and rewards of conducting research. The authors propose that opportunities for faculty teaching and research collaborations may result from the implementation of these strategies in the context of dwindling institutional resources and increasing professional demands. Finally, the authors consider how involving students in active learning projects focusing on research, and encouraging more open and honest dialogue about the challenges, struggles, and failures faculty members experience when conducting their own research, generates a reciprocal learning environment that is enriching for both students and faculty members
