Experiments on How to Integrate Forefront Research with Undergraduate Teaching

该项目的目的是探索将前沿研究融入本科教育的方法。PI正在创造一个合作环境，使大学的研究人员学者将他们的前沿科学研究转化为有意义的本科教育经验。参与的教师可以a）免费使用PI的开源核心软件工具，这有助于开发新软件，B）一套基于PI先前教育工作的全套评估课程开发框架，c）接触PI和合作机构的教育和研究人员，以及d）基于网络的社区支持。PI还与2年制和4年制学院以及社区学院的教师学者开展合作，以促进将基于研究的教育材料引入其科学课程，并鼓励本科生的科学研究机会。参与的教师有一个）免费访问所有教育技术开发通过先前和并行的开发合作，B）免费访问基于评估的课程活动，c）与研究型大学和PI和合作者的研究人员正在进行的合作，以及d）基于Web的社区支持。

The aim of this project is to explore ways of integrating forefront research into undergraduate education. The PI is creating a collaborative environment in which research faculty scholars at universities translate their cutting-edge scientific research into meaningful undergraduate educational experiences. Participating faculty have a) free access to the PI's open source core software tools, which ease the development of new software, b) a full set of assessment-based curriculum development frameworks based on the PI's prior education efforts, c) access to the education and research staff of the PI and collaborating institutions, and d) web-based community support. The PI is also developing collaborations with teaching faculty scholars from 2- and 4-year colleges and community colleges to facilitate the introduction of research-based educational materials into their science courses and encourage science research opportunities for undergraduates. Participating faculty have a) free access to all educational technologies developed through prior and concurrent development collaborations, b) free access to assessment-based curriculum activities, c) an ongoing collaboration with a research university and the research staff of the PI and collaborators, and d) Web-based community support.
