Mary Ellen Dello Stritto; Naomi R. Aguiar; Greta R. Underhill; Cat Turk; Gretchen Lohry-Smith; Raquel Lamantain – TechTrends: Linking Research and Practice to Improve Learning, 2025
In higher education, online students are often precluded from research assistantships that are more accessible for campus-based students. At a highly ranked institution for online learning, we developed the Undergraduate Research Program (URP) to address this gap in opportunities for online students. The URP is designed to engage fully distanced…
