Wereached out to these colleagues and explained the collaboration we hoped to create. BecauseERCs are expected to develop and support numerous education and outreach efforts, ourcolleagues saw potential benefits of the collaboration for the CBBG and we began work with theERC’s leadership to develop a structure for the collaboration.The laboratory portion of the activities funded by the grant are scheduled during the academicyear, i.e., the funded research efforts occur when the undergraduate students are on our campusduring the academic

This last topic was addressed by a series of elements notdirectly asking about HPL, but framed to reveal this. For example, to understand whether thecourse was assessment-centered we asked their level of agreement with the statements, “Ireceived adequate feedback on my work,” and “I was able to obtain enough practice onimportant topics.”Another part of the quantitative study was gauging to what extent the teaching reflects HPL.
