EvaluateUR Method Webinar

https://innovatebio.org/event/evaluateur-method-webinar

Online

The EvaluateUR Method is used to evaluate programs in different educational settings: independent undergraduate research, classroom-based research, and collegiate engineering and technology design competitions. The EvaluateUR Method measures student learning by providing statistically reliable assessments in a wide variety of outcome categories, including disciplinary and employability skills.

A unique feature of the EvaluateUR Method is the growth of student academic self-awareness, often called metacognition. The EvaluateUR Method serves as a tool for students, helping them build that awareness and use it to improve their learning.

EvaluateUR-CURE (E-CURE) is a version of the method specifically designed for students conducting research in a course (often called a CURE). E-CURE allows instructors to select a sub-set from a list of knowledge and skills – referred to as outcome categories – that best fit the learning goals of their course. This feature enables faculty to focus on a ‘core’ set of outcomes of particular relevance to their course research assignment(s). There also is an option for the CURE instructor to add additional learning outcomes.

E-CURE includes several options: (1) two-semester CURE; (2) one-semester CURE; and (3) shorter duration/smaller scale research project.

To learn more about using E-CURE attend a 75-minute session on August 19, 2024 from 3:00 – 4:15 pm Eastern time (ET).
