Description/Abstract
In 2013, ERAU hosted its first campus-wide undergraduate research symposium. Since then, nearly 200 abstracts have been submitted and scored. Abstracts are scored using a rubric based on learning objectives related to six steps in the research process: defining a problem, designing a course of action, applying ethical principles, conducting research, reaching decisions based on evidence, and communicating results. Abstracts were analyzed to compare scores over each learning objective and by year. Based on analysis, intervention strategies have been developed to increase low-ranking learning objectives such as communication of results.
