虽然基于课程的基因组学研究既可以带来知识增长，也可以让人们对科学的运作方式有更多的了解，但需要投入大量的课程时间才能使学生表现出与暑期研究经历相称的收获。尽管如此，这是接触更多学生的一种非常经济有效的方式。人们普遍认为科学、技术、工程和数学课程应该为本科生提供研究经验。然而，实际问题和有限的资源使这成为一个挑战。我们开发了一个生物信息学项目，为不同学校群体的学生提供基于课程的研究体验，并提供根据当地课程和特定机构的学生需求定制这种体验的机会。我们评估了态度和知识增益，寻找学生在考虑到广泛的课程和制度变量时如何反应的见解。虽然不同的方法似乎都会带来学习收益，但我们发现需要大量的课程时间投入才能使学生表现出与暑期研究经历相称的收益。一项校友调查显示，花在研究项目上的时间也是前学生一年或多年后对这段经历的评价的一个重要因素。我们的结论是：1）在生物学课程中实施生物信息学项目提供了一种成功吸引大量学生参与本科研究的机制； 2) 各种学术机构都可以为学生带来好处； 3）成功实施基于课程的研究经验需要大量的教学时间投入，学生才能充分受益。
While course-based research in genomics can generate both knowledge gains and a greater appreciation for how science is done, a significant investment of course time is required to enable students to show gains commensurate to a summer research experience. Nonetheless, this is a very cost-effective way to reach larger numbers of students. There is widespread agreement that science, technology, engineering, and mathematics programs should provide undergraduates with research experience. Practical issues and limited resources, however, make this a challenge. We have developed a bioinformatics project that provides a course-based research experience for students at a diverse group of schools and offers the opportunity to tailor this experience to local curriculum and institution-specific student needs. We assessed both attitude and knowledge gains, looking for insights into how students respond given this wide range of curricular and institutional variables. While different approaches all appear to result in learning gains, we find that a significant investment of course time is required to enable students to show gains commensurate to a summer research experience. An alumni survey revealed that time spent on a research project is also a significant factor in the value former students assign to the experience one or more years later. We conclude: 1) implementation of a bioinformatics project within the biology curriculum provides a mechanism for successfully engaging large numbers of students in undergraduate research; 2) benefits to students are achievable at a wide variety of academic institutions; and 3) successful implementation of course-based research experiences requires significant investment of instructional time for students to gain full benefit.
