centers and institutions of higher education.  The primary deliverable of the workshop is an elaborated 



blueprint for capacity-building around NC-FEW, including a) growing the participant network and b) 

enhancing its impact, reflecting both short- and long-term goals of NC-FEW.  Requested funds are cost-

shared on a 1:1 basis for the proposed activities.

University; Bruce Johnson, University of Arizona; Jessica S. Krim, Southern Illinois University 

Edwardsville; Bryan Rebar, University of Oregon; and Renee Schwartz, Georgia State University

Kate Hiester & Shari Liss, Ignited; Kaye Storm, Stanford University 

Abstract: CARET – the Collaborative Around Research Experiences for Teachers – is a growing 

collaboration involving roughly a dozen institutions engaged in providing research experiences for 

undergraduates aspiring to become teachers and/or professional educators currently in K-12 

classrooms. We are currently working on a) our conceptual framework and logic model, b) a literature 

review focused on Undergraduate Research Experiences (UREs), Course Undergraduate Research 

Experiences (CUREs), and Teacher Research Experiences (TREs), and c) a set of evaluation questions to 

be shared across our programs.  We welcome involvement by partners interested or engaged in 

URE/CURE/TRE efforts at your home institution. 



 

Hawai‘i Teaching and Research Action Clusters in STEM (TRACS) 

Times: Friday, June 23, 2017 at 5:30 pm and Saturday, June 24, 2017 at 7:00 am 

Speakers: John Rand, University of Hawaii System 

RAC Members: John Rand, Tiffany Tsang, Joshua Kaakua, University of Hawaiʻi System, OSE 

Abstract: The goal of the Hawai‘i TRACS project is to develop a formal inventory of Undergraduate 

Research Experiences (URE) throughout the ten-campus University of Hawai‘i (UH) System to optimize 

the undergraduate student learning experience in STEM. The UH System Office of STEM Education (OSE) 

will lead the Hawaiʻi TRACS effort and will work with the STEM faculty at each campus to identify, 

catalog and publish a comprehensive inventory of URE projects. This is an essential step toward better 

aligning these projects in vertically integrated, multi-institution STEM pathways.  For information on the 

Hawai‘i STEM Education Center see: (http://serc.carleton.edu/StemEdCenters/profiles/141345.html).

Collaborative Around Research Experiences for Teachers (CARET) 

Time: Friday, June 23, 2017 at 1:30 PM   

 

 



 

 

Location: Iberville 



Speakers: John Keller, Cal Poly San Luis Obispo; Jessica Dwyer, University of Utah; Willie Burgess, Purdue 

University; Larry Horvath, San Francisco State University; Bruce Johnson, University of Arizona; Jessica S. 

Krim, Southern Illinois University Edwardsville; Bryan Rebar, University of Oregon; Renee Schwartz, and 

Georgia State University 



Additional Authors: Kelly Barry, Southern Illinois University Edwardsville; Sanlyn Buxner, University of 

Arizona; Eddy Ham, UC Berkeley; Sharon Locke, Southern Illinois University Edwardsville; Kimberly 

Sierra-Cajas, University of Arizona; Laleh Coté, SoonChun Lee, Wichita State University; Lawrence 

Berkeley National Laboratory; and Elisa Stone, UC Berkeley 



Abstract: The Collaborative Around Research Experiences for Teachers (CARET) is a consortium of 14 

STEM education centers and other organizations invested in providing research opportunities for 

undergraduates, teacher candidates, and in-service teachers on STEM teaching career trajectories. 

Initially conceived at the 2013 APLU SMTI Meeting in St. Louis, CARET has received support through at 

100Kin10 Meet-up Grant and, more recently, was a recipient of an APLU NSEC Research Action Cluster 

grant. During this session, we will present our shared work on a) defining a conceptual framework and 

logic model around research and work experiences for pre-service and in-service teachers, b) conducting 

a literature review of recent articles relevant to undergraduate research experiences (UREs), course 

undergraduate research experiences (CUREs), and teacher research experiences (TREs), and c) 

implementing shared metrics for program evaluation. 

 

Professional Development for Mentors of Novice Undergraduate STEM researchers from Under-

represented Populations 

Time: Friday, June 23, 2017 at 1:30 PM   

 

 



 

 

Location: Orleans 



Speakers: Donna Llewellyn, Boise State University 

Additional Authors: Catherine Bates, Boise State University 

Abstract: The literature is clear that undergraduate research is a high impact practice that helps 

students, especially those from under-represented populations, succeed in STEM majors. It is also clear 

that one of the most important factors that lead to positive outcomes is the quality of the student-

mentor relationship and the effectiveness of the mentor. In this session we will describe what we are 

doing to help ensure that our faculty mentors are prepared for working with students from under-

represented populations, and the participants will be invited to share what they are doing on their 

campuses.
