亲和研究小组模式是一个有吸引力的工具，让本科生参与研究，留住他们，并培养他们对高等教育的兴趣。使用这种模式，学生有机会发展，雇用，并整合所需的知识和技能的研究与合作工作所需的知识和技能。该模型的潜在采用者经常询问将该模型应用于计算机科学等领域的可行性，在这些领域中，通常情况下，学生必须有坚实的学术基础才能参与研究。本文通过说明该模型如何应用于涉及不同技能水平和经验的学生的计算机科学研究项目来解决这个问题。特别是，本文介绍了示例结构化任务和相关活动，展示了学生如何发展领域专业知识，了解和欣赏研究过程及其实践，并获得技术，团队，沟通，解决问题和更高层次的思维技能。
The Affinity Research Group model is an attractive vehicle for involving undergraduates in research, retaining them, and fostering their interest in higher education. Using this model, students are given opportunities to develop, employ, and integrate knowledge and skills required for research with knowledge and skills required for cooperative work. Potential adopters of the model often inquire about the feasibility of applying the model in a field like computer science, in which it often is the case that a student must have a solid academic foundation in order to be involved in research. This paper addresses this question by illustrating how the model has been applied to computer science research projects that involve students with different skill levels and experience. In particular, the paper presents example structured tasks and related activities that demonstrate how students develop domain expertise, gain an understanding and appreciation of the research process and its practice, and acquire technical, team, communication, problem‐solving, and higher‐level thinking skills.
