| 總結: | The first recommendation of The Boyer Commission Report was that research-based learning be made the standard experience for students at university. Undergraduate research in Australian universities has come a long way since 1998, when the Boyer report was published, but comparing our tertiary sector to the USA, we still have a long way to go before our students have large-scale access to apprenticeship-style UREs, and technologically-advanced avenues for communicating their findings. This project aimed to gather and share information about why so few of our students participate in, and publish, undergraduate research, and to provide concrete guidance to academics and administrators about how we can give more students these crucial experiences. The project team members taught teaching-focused academic scientists, we aim to ask and answer these questions specifically for science UREs. We believe, based on our own published work, that it is possible to massify UREs and provide technologically- enabled opportunities for students. |
