SUMMARY:Leveraging Career-Readiness Language in your Research & Creative Inquiry Experiences Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Onsite at College Park\, Maryland \n\nDescription:\nParticipants will learn to reframe how to present their undergraduate research\, scholarship\, and creative inquiry (URSCI) experiences in terms of transferable career readiness skills identified by the National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE) as in demand by employers.

Participants will: (1) become familiar with the NACE career readiness competencies\, (2) learn how to apply the NACE comptencies to undergraduate research experiences (UREs)\, (3) see examples of how to apply the NACE competencies to UREs\, and (4) begin an action plan for infusing NACE career readiness in your UREs.\n\nThe last day to cancel your workshop registration was May 20\, 2024.

SUMMARY:Beyond Buzzwords: Upholding UR Practices Through Action\, Not Words Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Onsite at College Park\, Maryland \nDescription:\nJoin us for an empowering 2-hour workshop\, and learn how to center your access initiatives on the work\, not the words. As we navigate a shifting landscape where traditional terminology related to access and belonging faces new challenges\, this session is your opportunity to dive deep into the essence of what makes our campuses vibrant. Through engaging discussions\, innovative activities\, and strategic planning sessions\, we’ll explore actionable\, evidence-based strategies that transcend terminology yet uphold the core values of access and educational excellence. This workshop will equip you with the tools to not only adapt to legislative changes but also to lead with intention\, ensuring every student and colleague benefits from an inclusive educational environment. Don’t miss this chance to redefine the future of inclusivity in higher education with us!\n\nThe last day to cancel your workshop registration was May 20\, 2024. After May 20\, no refund will be given.\n\nLearn More About ConnectUR 2024 >>\nAgenda: \nSegment 1: Introduction and Context Setting (30 minutes)\n\nWe will briefly present the current landscape of DEI in higher education\, including the challenges and opportunities.\nWe will share aggregated pre-survey results to highlight common themes and experiences among participants.\n\nSegment 2: Reframing DEI Work Beyond Terminology (30 minutes)\n\nWe will have participants discuss pre-survey results in small groups and brainstorm approaches to upholding their work.\nActivity 1:* Small group discussions based on pre-survey responses about rethinking DEI work without relying on DEI terminology. Each group discusses and brainstorms their approach to maintaining the essence of DEI efforts under restrictive conditions. Groups will be divided according to levels of severity of legislation and/or state legislation. This activity challenges participants to articulate their DEI-related work and goals without using DEI terminology\, focusing on the intention and impact of their actions. This exercise encourages creativity and critical thinking about the essence of DEI work.\n\nSegment 3: Strategic Planning and Implementation (45 minutes)\n\nCreate a space for participants to develop actionable steps and measurable outcomes to continue their DEI purpose-driven initiatives.\nActivity 2: This activity involves participants in scenario-based planning to develop inclusive practices that can be implemented regardless of legislative restrictions. It emphasizes practical\, evidence-based strategies and encourages peer learning. Emphasis is on actionable steps and measurable outcomes without explicit DEI labeling.\n\nSegment 4: Sharing\, Reflection\, and Closing (15 minutes)\n\nGroups share their strategies and insights from Activity 2.\nWe will facilitate a reflective discussion on how to apply these strategies in their contexts.\nWe will outline a follow-up plan to support ongoing collaboration and sharing of best practices among participants.\n\nNote: This pre-conference workshop will also include a pre-event survey and follow-up.\nFacilitators:\n\nJamie Gilbert\, Valdosta State University\nTimothy Raines\, Raines Consulting\nSophie Pierszalowski\, University of Washington

SUMMARY:Students as Collaborators: An MCS Division Webinar
DESCRIPTION:This free webinar is hosted by the Mathematical\, Computing\, and Statistical Sciences Division of CUR but is open to the entire undergraduate research community. This webinar will take place on Tuesday\, April 23 from 2:00 – 3:00 PM ET. \nWhen faculty members mentor students in undergraduate research\, they function in the role of mentor. This makes sense – faculty have more experience in choosing problems\, understanding disciplinary norms\, pursuing the research\, and reporting the results. However\, students bring their own knowledge and experience to the work and can function as genuine collaborators. Students ask good questions\, demonstrate audacity\, cross disciplinary boundaries\, and possess real expertise\, all of which can enrich the research experience for the faculty member. In this talk\, Dominic Klyve will share some of his experiences with student research\, with a focus on what the students bring to the work. \nDominic Klyve is a Professor of Mathematics at Central Washington University. He is the author of more than 70 papers in number theory\, the history of mathematics and science\, and applied statistics. His interdisciplinary works have appeared in journals ranging from Gastrointestinal Endoscopy to Shakespeare Quarterly. He has won the Alder Award for teaching and the Lester-Ford Award for expository writing from the Mathematical Association of America\, plus the Faculty Mentoring Award from the Council on Undergraduate Research.
