Course-Based Undergraduate Research Experience (CURE) Workshop
June 2 @ 9:00 am - 5:00 pm
Workshop leaders: Lawrence Blumer, Ph.D. (Morehouse College) and Christopher Beck, Ph.D (Emory University)
CURE workshop description:
CUREs are high impact learning-teaching activities in which students conduct authentic science investigations in the context of a lecture or laboratory course. Participants in this workshop will begin developing a CURE activity that they will implement at their home institution and potentially conduct education research on their CURE implementation. We invite faculty to join us as a team of 1 or more. Working with a partner from your institution is not required, but can be helpful for planning how to address institutional specific barriers and after the workshop when participants are implementing the plans they made at the workshop. The new CURE activity may be in any area of STEM and at least one of the faculty on your team should be directly involved in developing and teaching the new CURE. Participants in this interactive workshop will be guided by the workshop facilitators (Drs. Christopher Beck, Emory University, and Lawrence Blumer, Morehouse College) to create a step-by-step plan to develop and implement a CURE activity. Participants will leave with a concrete plan for moving forward with implementation. Register for the workshop using this registration link. If you have questions about the workshop, please email hdriscol@norwich.edu.
