WHERE IS THE OUR?
![Page 18: Welcome New Faculty USF Libraries Collections and Services Librarians Nancy Cunningham & Matt Torrence Office for Undergraduate Research Dr. Richard Pollenz](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022060106/551a8360550346761a8b5197/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
LIB 210Second Floor

The OUR is a unit of Undergraduate Studies
![Page 19: Welcome New Faculty USF Libraries Collections and Services Librarians Nancy Cunningham & Matt Torrence Office for Undergraduate Research Dr. Richard Pollenz](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022060106/551a8360550346761a8b5197/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
WHY UR?
![Page 20: Welcome New Faculty USF Libraries Collections and Services Librarians Nancy Cunningham & Matt Torrence Office for Undergraduate Research Dr. Richard Pollenz](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022060106/551a8360550346761a8b5197/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Importance of a UR Experience
Students engaged in UR:
• Show increased retention (especially when engaged as freshman/Sophomores)
• Show higher academic performance
• Show decreased time to degree
• Exhibit higher levels of competitiveness for national awards
• Gain increased marketability and competitiveness
![Page 21: Welcome New Faculty USF Libraries Collections and Services Librarians Nancy Cunningham & Matt Torrence Office for Undergraduate Research Dr. Richard Pollenz](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022060106/551a8360550346761a8b5197/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
WHAT DO WE DO?

Main Objective of the OUR:
Facilitate processes that will allow all UG students in all disciplines an opportunity to engage in a UR experience at least one time
during their four years at USF

Challenges to Undergraduate Research at USF

Increasing of UR capacity at USF
![Page 34: Welcome New Faculty USF Libraries Collections and Services Librarians Nancy Cunningham & Matt Torrence Office for Undergraduate Research Dr. Richard Pollenz](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022060106/551a8360550346761a8b5197/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Creating Research Experiences and Activities
through Teaching Enhancement
(CREATE)
![Page 35: Welcome New Faculty USF Libraries Collections and Services Librarians Nancy Cunningham & Matt Torrence Office for Undergraduate Research Dr. Richard Pollenz](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022060106/551a8360550346761a8b5197/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
CREATE Program
OverviewThe goal of the CREATE program is to promote the integration of
research as part of the course curricula or as an option to a subset of students who are enrolled in a course
Research opportunities must involve at least 15 students and may be carried out as groups or may involve individual projects
The OUR will provide up to $1,000 for supplies and 30 hrs of support for a graduate student (2hr/week)
![Page 36: Welcome New Faculty USF Libraries Collections and Services Librarians Nancy Cunningham & Matt Torrence Office for Undergraduate Research Dr. Richard Pollenz](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022060106/551a8360550346761a8b5197/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
CREATE Program
In both options, students engaged in the research experience will be expected to:
• Pose or work from defined research questions• Apply defined methods of inquiry relevant to the project/discipline to create
original outcomes/products• Present the outcomes/products to others in formal and informal platforms
The research experiences are not confined by the expectation of the “creation of new knowledge”. At the core of these activities is the development of the
student as a researcher or the opportunity to experience the research process and make the connection to how new knowledge that is generated drives the
discipline.
![Page 37: Welcome New Faculty USF Libraries Collections and Services Librarians Nancy Cunningham & Matt Torrence Office for Undergraduate Research Dr. Richard Pollenz](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022060106/551a8360550346761a8b5197/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
CREATE Program Examples• Research and response to a challenge question in or out of the discipline
• Researching and creating an archive of bibliographical documents
• Creation of web-based sites to disseminate archived information
• Researching and writing a biography
• Survey data collection, analysis and presentation
• Teaching as research projects
• Development of science literacy modules (take on the road)
• Use of performance to “answer” a challenge question or demonstrate a concept (take on the road)
• Use of performance to communicate key course concepts (take on the road)
• Genome annotation
