摘要本科生研究经验（URES）已被确定为高影响力的实践，增加对复杂概念的理解，促进独立探究，提高教育成果，如学生保留率和毕业率。本文认为，为了使URE真正的“高影响力”，从科学的实验室模型可以被用于社会科学教师在各种机构设置，以促进多层次的指导。理论与实践相结合，并结合作者在研究型院校建立国际关系本科实验室的经验，提出了最佳实践建议。
Abstract Undergraduate research experiences (UREs) have been identified as High-Impact Practices that increase understanding of complex concepts, foster independent inquiry, and improve educational outcomes, such as student retention and graduation rates. This article argues that in order to make the URE truly “high-impact,” the laboratory model from the sciences can be used by social science faculty members in a variety of institutional settings to foster mentorship at multiple levels. The theoretical is combined with the practical, offering suggestions for best practices based on the author’s experience setting up a undergraduate laboratory in International Relations at a research-oriented institution.
