Course-based undergraduate research experiences (CUREs) provide a way for students to gain research experience in a classroom setting. Few examples of cell culture CUREs or online CUREs exist in the literature. The Cell Biology Education Consortium (CBEC) provides a network and resources for instructors working to incorporate cell-culture based research into the classroom. In this article, we provide examples from six instructors from the CBEC network on how they structure their cell-culture CUREs and how they transitioned the labs to online in the spring semester of 2020. We intend for these examples to provide instructors with ideas for strategies to set up cell culture CUREs, how to change that design mid-term, and for creating online CUREs in the future.
基于课程的本科研究经历(CUREs)为学生提供了一种在课堂环境中获得研究经验的途径。文献中几乎没有细胞培养CUREs或在线CUREs的实例。细胞生物学教育联盟(CBEC)为致力于将基于细胞培养的研究纳入课堂的教师提供了一个网络和资源。在本文中,我们提供了来自CBEC网络的六位教师的实例,介绍了他们如何构建细胞培养CUREs,以及他们在2020年春季学期如何将实验室过渡到线上。我们希望这些实例能为教师提供有关建立细胞培养CUREs的策略思路、如何在学期中期改变设计,以及未来如何创建在线CUREs的思路。
