项目摘要
This National Science Foundation Innovations of Graduate Education (IGE) award to the University of California-Irvine will test a cascading mentorship program for science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) doctoral students. A centuries-old model of doctoral mentoring assumed that students learn by working alongside their faculty advisors at the lab bench. However, research as evolved into a team activity with advisors and students serving different roles and rarely working together at the same task. In this environment, students typically learn most research skills from advanced graduate students and postdoctoral researchers rather than their faculty advisors. Cascading mentorship describes such a model of mentoring from a rich network of faculty and peers. Doctoral students who receive cascading mentorship are much more likely to develop strong research skills than those who do not regardless of the quality of mentoring received from their primary faculty advisors. However, not all students are trained in large, well-functioning labs with ready-made cascading mentorship networks. In addition, factors such as shared or dissimilar cultural identity with the majority of faculty and differences in first-generation students’ access to faculty mentors, friends, or family members with doctoral degree experience may result in differences in the quality of mentoring. Thus, when doctoral programs fail to provide rich networks of cascading mentorship, it is the students from minority communities who are likely to suffer most.In this project, approximately 65 advanced graduate students and postdoctoral researchers in cognitive science will be trained to lead cascading mentorship groups of five to ten doctoral students each. The groups will use proven pedagogical methods to help members plan their research, organize their time, and learn to produce the forms of writing on which academic success depends such as: literature reviews, funding proposals, research reports, etc. This project will address research questions related to four scale-up challenges: 1) group leader effects, i.e., whether the approach works when these mentorship groups are led by advanced graduate students rather than by a faculty member; 2) implementation cost, i.e., whether these groups can be supported in a way that is affordable for most doctoral programs; 3) long-term effects of cascading mentorship over a period of years in a variety of domains including: writing quantity and quality; progress through the graduate program; mental health and well-being; and 4) broad suitability, i.e., whether the model is equally effective for all students or whether only a subset of students benefit. Results from this project will help departments decide whether to adopt a cascading mentorship model program-wide or offer this model as an option for a subset of students.The Innovations in Graduate Education (IGE) program is focused on research in graduate education. The goals of IGE are to pilot, test and validate innovative approaches to graduate education and to generate the knowledge required to move these approaches into the broader community.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
这个国家科学基金会研究生教育创新(IGE)奖给加州大学欧文分校将测试科学,技术,工程和数学(STEM)博士生的级联导师计划。一个有着数百年历史的博士生导师模式认为,学生通过与他们的导师在实验室工作来学习。然而,研究逐渐演变成一种团队活动,顾问和学生扮演不同的角色,很少在同一任务中一起工作。在这种环境下,学生通常从高级研究生和博士后研究人员那里学习大部分研究技能,而不是他们的导师。级联导师制描述了这样一种由教师和同行组成的丰富网络提供指导的模式。接受级联导师的博士生更有可能发展强大的研究技能,而不是那些不考虑从他们的主要教师顾问那里获得的指导质量的人。然而,并不是所有的学生都在大型,功能完善的实验室与现成的级联导师网络进行培训。此外,与大多数教师共享或不同的文化身份以及第一代学生获得教师导师,朋友或具有博士学位经验的家庭成员的差异等因素可能会导致指导质量的差异。因此,当博士生项目无法提供丰富的级联导师网络时,受影响最大的可能是来自少数民族社区的学生。在该项目中,将培训约65名认知科学领域的高级研究生和博士后研究人员,以领导每个由5至10名博士生组成的级联导师小组。小组将使用行之有效的教学方法,以帮助成员计划他们的研究,组织他们的时间,并学习生产的写作形式,学术成功所依赖的,如:文献综述,资助建议,研究报告等。当这些指导小组由高级研究生而不是教职员工领导时,这种方法是否有效; 2)实施成本,即,这些群体是否可以以大多数博士课程负担得起的方式得到支持; 3)在多个领域多年来级联导师的长期影响,包括:写作数量和质量;通过研究生课程的进展;心理健康和福祉;以及4)广泛的适用性,即,该模式是否对所有学生都同样有效,还是只有一部分学生受益。该项目的结果将帮助各部门决定是否在整个项目范围内采用级联导师模式,或者将此模式作为一部分学生的选择。研究生教育创新(IGE)项目专注于研究生教育研究。IGE的目标是试验、测试和验证研究生教育的创新方法,并产生将这些方法推广到更广泛的社区所需的知识。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命,并被认为值得通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估来支持。
