Description

ABSTRACT Research-intensive universities can provide a discovery-rich environment where research and education are integrated in every class and where all students have the opportunity to apply knowledge through research opportunities and internships. We describe how a small grant-funded program within a single science department developed into a center that serves all science and mathematics faculty and students. By gradually building alliances with science faculty, deans, precollege educators and other colleges, we have achieved many successes. Our programs assist faculty with curriculum development and new pedagogies. We offer research opportunities to our own students and students across the nation. We work with precollege educators to improve the teaching of science and mathematics K-12. Newer programs involve graduate students and pistols in K-12 education and college curriculum development and teaching. In this paper we review the history of our Center, describe our programs and address some of the challenges in creating and institutionalizing these programs.
