LSAMP SUNY Phase III Research Project: Research on Student Support Services and Graduate Issues

纽约州立大学路易斯·斯托克斯少数民族参与联盟（SUNY LSAMP）第三阶段教育研究项目侧重于学生支持服务和研究生问题。该项目采用混合方法研究计划，使用定量和定性方法，回答有关本科生和研究生水平的学生进入教授阶段的问题，并努力建立最佳实践模型。这项研究将探讨以下问题：1)一个成功的辅导计划的要素是什么？2)人员配置和服务提供的变化：本科研究的主要好处和挑战是什么？3)当少数族裔学生完成大学学业并展望未来时，各种动机对他们的相对重要性是什么？什么因素导致少数民族研究生渴望或拒绝从事教授职业？项目结果将确定成功的方法和成功的原因。将开发一种模式，用于规划学术和个人支持以及成功的策略，以鼓励少数民族学生在各种环境中升入研究生学习。研究结果将通过学术文章、会议报告、相关网站和石溪大学国家包容性教育中心进行传播。另外33个国家科学基金会Louis Stokes联盟将通过一些不同的论坛成为传播结果的直接受益者。

The State University of New York Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation (SUNY LSAMP) Phase III educational research project focuses on student support services and graduate issues. The project employs a mixed method research plan, using both quantitative and qualitative methods, to answer questions pertaining to undergraduate and graduate level student attainment into the professoriate and to work toward models of best practices. The study will examine such questions as:1) What are the elements of a successful tutoring program?2) Variations in staffing and the delivery of services: what are the principal benefits and challenges in undergraduate research?3) What is the relative importance of various motivations on underrepresented minority students as they complete college and look toward the future? 4) What factors lead minority graduate students to aspire to or reject careers in the professoriate? Project results will identify successful approaches and the reasons for the success. A model will be developed for planning academic and personal support as well as successful strategies to encourage progression to graduate study for minority students in a variety of settings.The results of the study will be disseminated through scholarly articles, presentations at conferences, via relevant websites and through the National Center for Inclusive Education at Stony Brook University. The 33 other National Science Foundation Louis Stokes Alliances will be direct beneficiaries of the dissemination results using a number of different forums.
