| There is recent and increasing interest in modifying traditional courses to infuse research or research-like experiences into them with the goal of being more efficient in developing students' expertise. This presentation examines the perceptions of students who participated in such a course at a large Midwestern University during their freshman year. Student perceptions of their traditional courses and the impact of their modified first year course are examined over several years. A rough accounting of the benefits and debits from participation in a research-focused first year course is discussed. |
