夏桥项目通常旨在为一年级学生建立社会联系，以帮助他们轻松过渡到大学，但很少有研究报告桥梁项目成功地导致这些结果。我们为即将入学的生物专业学生反向设计了一个夏桥计划，以增加学生之间以及学生和教师之间的舒适度和联系。我们发现，与没有参加桥牌项目的匹配学生相比，参加桥牌项目的一年级学生有更大的舒适度和与教师的联系。然而，有没有参加桥梁项目的学生与匹配的学生谁没有参加该计划相比，在舒适度和与同龄人的连接没有差异。桥梁学生报告了桥梁项目的具体元素，他们认为这些元素会带来更大的舒适度和与教师的联系，这可以帮助指导桥梁开发人员设计旨在增强学生与教师关系的项目。这项研究增加了越来越多的文献桥梁计划，并演示了如何设计一个桥梁计划，以增加舒适度和社会联系与教师。打破障碍：桥梁计划帮助一年级生物学学生与教师联系
Summer bridge programs often aim to build social connections for first-year students to ease their transition into college, yet few studies have reported on bridge programs successfully leading to these outcomes. We backward designed a summer bridge program for incoming biology majors to increase the comfort and connections among students and between students and faculty. We found that first-year students who participated in the bridge program had greater comfort and connections with faculty compared with matched students who did not participate in the bridge program. However, there were no differences in the comfort and connections with peers for students who participated in the bridge program compared with matched students who did not participate in the program. Bridge students reported specific elements of the bridge program that they perceived led to greater comfort and connections with faculty, which can help guide bridge developers in the design of their programs aimed to enhance student relationships with faculty. This study adds to the growing literature on bridge programs and demonstrates how a bridge program can be designed to lead to increased comfort and social connections with faculty.
