Undergraduate research plays a central role in science education. As undergraduate educators, it is our responsibility to help students acquire research fundamentals and communicate effectively. Some of the approaches implemented include short presentations of their research topics, weekly literature discussions, one-on-one mentoring, and multiple reviews of their research proposal and final paper. Also, when appropriate, we have short lectures/discussions on theoretical aspects of their research.
