Karukstis, Kerry K.
Journal of Chemical Education, v83 n12 p1744-1745 Dec 2006
The value of undergraduate research workshop to significantly enhance the quality of undergraduate science education was cited as one of the goals by the National Science Foundations (NSF) Strategic Plan. To address this strategic national need, the Council on Undergraduate Research (CUR) has granted an NSF course, curriculum, and laboratory improvement and would also conduct a series of regional workshops at host institutions in several geographic regions throughout the country.
