    The Role of Academic Libraries in Mentored Undergraduate Research: A Model of Engagement in the Academic Community
    (Association of College & Research Libraries, 2009-05) Stamatoplos, Anthony C., 1958-
    Mentored undergraduate research is an emergent pedagogy in higher education. It differs fundamentally from course-related student research and is largely independent of the curriculum. Academic libraries should engage formally with the undergraduate research community. To do so, librarians will need to think and work beyond traditional models of library service, most notably in information literacy programs. The intent of this article is to raise awareness about opportunities for library involvement with undergraduate researchers and programs. Lessons from one university, including a formal partnership between a library and an undergraduate research center, suggest some general strategies that academic libraries might explore.

    Spring 2023 Center for Research and Learning Questionnaire Report
    (2023-09-15) Hahn, Thomas
    This report provides the results of the end-of-year questionnaire to students participating in the Center for Research and Leaning’s (CRL) undergraduate research programs. CRL serves students through a series of undergraduate research programs overseen by faculty and program leaders. Administered through the Institute for Engaged Learning, CRL programs offer students the opportunity to carry out innovative research, scholarship, and creative activity with faculty mentors in a variety of disciplines. The CRL programs assessed in this report include the Diversity Scholars Research Program, Multidisciplinary Undergraduate Research Institute (MURI), and Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program.

    Using Electronic Portfolios to Measure Student Gains from Mentored Research
    (Council on Undergraduate Research, 2009-03) Wilson, Kathryn; Crowe, Mary; Singh, Jacqueline; Stamatoplos, Anthony; Rubens, Elizabeth; Gosney, John; Dimaculangan, Dwight; Levy, Foster; Zrull, Mark; Pyles, Rebecca
    This article reports on the development and implementation of the National Science Foundation (NSF) Electronic Portfolio (ePortfolio) Project. The goal of the NSF ePortfolio Project was to develop an objective, evidence-based approach to measuring student learning as the result participating in a mentored research experience. The project developed an undergraduate research assessment instrument, the NSF Electronic Rubric, to examine student research products before and after a research experience. That tool is embedded in a learning portfolio, which was constructed to gather evidence of student skills as measured against a set of learning outcomes. The article discusses the rationale for the ePortfolio project and development of the rubric and evaluation tool.
