Abstract

Community college transfer students face numerous challenges, including gaining access to undergraduate research experiences. In this Perspectives piece, we articulate the benefits of undergraduate research experiences for community college transfer students, some of the common barriers for engaging transfer students in undergraduate research, and how 4-year institutions can address these problems through the development of transfer-specific programs. We specifically discuss the LEAP Scholars program, which we designed for low-income community college transfer students. The LEAP Scholars program helped students learn about undergraduate research through their participation in a science education course-based undergraduate research experience and facilitated student access to undergraduate research experiences in science faculty member research labs.

满足社区学院理科转学生对促进本科生研究经历的需求。
社区大学的转学生面临着众多挑战,其中包括获得本科研究经历的机会。在这篇《视角》文章中,我们阐述了本科研究经历对社区大学转校生的益处、转校生参与本科研究的一些常见障碍,以及四年制院校如何通过开发针对转校生的项目来解决这些问题。我们特别讨论了为低收入社区大学转学生设计的 LEAP 学者计划。LEAP 学者计划帮助学生通过参加以科学教育课程为基础的本科生研究体验来了解本科生研究,并促进学生在理科教师的研究实验室中获得本科生研究体验。
