Reinventing Undergraduate Education : Engaging College Students in Research and Creative Activities: ASHE Higher Education Report, Paperback / softback Book

Reinventing Undergraduate Education : Engaging College Students in Research and Creative Activities: ASHE Higher Education Report Paperback / softback

Part of the J-B ASHE Higher Education Report Series (AEHE) series

Paperback / softback

Description

Engaging undergraduate students in research and creative activities has been advocated as an innovative strategy to promote student learning in higher education.

This monograph systematically synthesizes the literature to provide both conceptual and empirical evidence to demonstrate the effects of such engagement on student learning and development from higher education.

Student engagement in research and creative activities during the college years is associated with a variety of outcomes in both the cognitive and affective domains.

The evidence also points out that colleges and universities can make a difference in undergraduate engagement in research and creative activities.

The authors provided various examples of how different types of institutions integrate inquiry-oriented activities in the curriculum, institutionalize research-supportive programs, and foster a campus culture that values inquiry-based undergraduate education.

This is the fourth issue in the 33rd volume of the Jossey-Bass series ASHE Higher Education Report . Each monograph in the series is the definitive analysis of a tough higher education problem, based on thorough research of pertinent literature and institutional experiences.

Topics are identified by a national survey. Noted practitioners and scholars are then commissioned to write the reports, with experts providing critical reviews of each manuscript before publication.
