本科研究委员会(CUR)最近在华盛顿特区的国家新闻俱乐部召集了一个专家小组,讨论如何通过丰富科学、技术、工程和数学等关键领域的学生和教师的教育重点来推进国家的竞争力目标。小组成员主张振兴本科课程,包括将学生置于教育过程中心的方法,使他们能够体验发现的兴奋。在强调创造性解决方案和培养有效解决问题能力的课堂上进行严格的实践体验,不仅会鼓励学生进入技术领域,而且还会培养出受过良好教育的公民,了解“科学是如何完成的”。为了推进这一努力,CUR发布了最新出版物《开发和维持一个研究支持课程:成功实践纲要》。
The Council for Undergraduate Research (CUR) recently convened a panel of experts at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C., to discuss how the nation's competitiveness goals can be advanced by enriching the educational focus for students and teachers in the critical fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. The panelists advocated the revitalization of the undergraduate curriculum to include approaches that place students at the center of the educational process and enable them to experience the excitement of discovery. Rigorous, hands-on experiences in the classroom that emphasize creative solutions and develop effective problem-solving skills will not only encourage students into technical fields but also develop an educated citizenry with an appreciation of "how science is done". To advance this effort CUR released its newest publication, Developing and Sustaining a Research-Supportive Curriculum: A Compendium of Successful Practices, at the event.
