Group membersbegan sharing the college’s vision for the future of online education. Over the semesters, interestbegan to build and several faculty started reaching out to discover more about what could bedone to make their courses more online friendly.The initial course to go through the DFO process was Materials Science & Engineering (MSE)598: Concepts in Materials Science.

Ph.D. training production levels and types are not always a good fit foraddressing complex technical and societal problems such as these. To train these scientists, theP3 NRT is using the T-training model proposed by the American Society of Plant Biology(ASPB) and described in “Unleashing a Decade of Innovation in Plant Science: A Vision for2015-2025”.

Instruments and MethodologyWe conducted pre- and post-experience surveys of undergraduate researchers participating insummer research programs at Michigan State University during Summer 2012. The pre-experience survey was deployed in the first week of the 10-week summer program, and gatheredinformation about students’ background, preparation for research, and their expectations of whatthe summer experience would involve. The pre-experience survey included a self-assessment ofstudents’ skills and strengths and asked about students’ reasons for participating inundergraduate research, the nature of their early communications with their research mentor, andtheir post-graduation plans (graduate school, career, etc.).
