The University of Wisconsin-Madison proposes to organize a workshop for NSF BIO REU Sites that will bring Principal Investigators (PIs) together to discus evidence-based approaches in REU program development and implementation. The overarching theme of the meeting will be to use Evidence-Based Approaches to Enhance and Strengthen the REU Experience. The structure of the workshop will align with the goals of the NSF REU program and will be designed to develop community among the PIs through presentations, discussions, networking panels and poster sessions about strategies for delivering high quality meaningful research experiences to undergraduate students in the biological sciences. A pre-workshop on-line survey will be sent to the PIs to assess their needs and expectations for the workshop and to gather information that will inform workshop planning. PIs will be asked to identify their interests regarding networking opportunities in the pre-survey and this information will be used to define topics for discussion. Informal mechanisms will be used to collect feedback during the workshop which will then be used to make mid- point adjustments to the workshop agenda. Members of the Bio REU LC (Leadership Council) will meet at the end of the first full day to check-in, review the comments box feedback, share their informal feedback from participating in the activities and, if necessary, make adjustments to the final day's agenda. A post-workshop on-line evaluation survey will be administered immediately following the workshop to assess the effectiveness of the workshop logistics, the workshop activities and to gather suggestions for future workshops. The results of this evaluation will be included in the final report submitted to NSF. More information is available by contacting the PI, Dr. Janet Branchaw at [e-mail].

威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校提议为NSF BIO REU网站组织一个研讨会，将主要研究者（PI）聚集在一起，讨论REU项目开发和实施中的循证方法。会议的首要主题将是使用循证方法来增强和加强REU经验。研讨会的结构将与NSF REU计划的目标保持一致，并将通过演讲，讨论，网络小组和海报会议，为生物科学本科生提供高质量有意义的研究经验的战略，旨在发展PI之间的社区。将向参与者发送研讨会前在线调查，以评估他们对研讨会的需求和期望，并收集信息，为研讨会规划提供参考。在预调查中，将要求PI确定他们对网络机会的兴趣，这些信息将用于确定讨论的主题。将利用非正式机制在研讨会期间收集反馈意见，然后利用这些反馈意见对研讨会议程进行中期调整。Bio REU LC（领导理事会）的成员将在第一天结束时举行会议，以登记，审查评论框反馈，分享他们参与活动的非正式反馈，并在必要时调整最后一天的议程。将在讲习班结束后立即进行一次讲习班后在线评价调查，以评估讲习班后勤工作和讲习班活动的有效性，并为今后的讲习班收集建议。评估结果将包含在提交给NSF的最终报告中。欲了解更多信息，请联系PI Janet Branchaw博士（[e-mail]）。
