These resources provided a lot of material related to undergraduate research mentoring and teaching. I acquired many ideas for active learning experiences to use in my classes. There were many experiential learning activities designed to move students along in their scholarly activity.
During 2013 – 2014, I examined many books as potential resources related to undergraduate research. Click here for an annotated list of Undergrad Research References. And here is a short list of the books:
