E-CURE: Information about your CURE 2022-2023

To ensure that, as the CURE instructor, you have the time and course structure to successfully implement E-CURE, we strongly suggest the following:

The course should include an authentic research project that represents a substantial component of the course. The research project should be long enough to ensure that your assessments can measure growth on the student outcomes you have selected. View slideshow of suggested E-CURE schedule to preview the timeline.

The method requires the CURE to have a single individual completing the assessments and ensuring that there are appropriate follow-up conversations. If there are multiple advisors and/or TAs for sections of the course, the CURE faculty member and the TA(s) (ideally) should meet to fill out the assessments collaboratively (or, at the very least, the CURE instructor should solicit feedback from the other advisors/TA.)

To ensure timely completion of the E-CURE steps, the instructor should devote class/lab time to these tasks. These arrangements should be clearly shown in the class syllabus.

We also recommend that you take some time to review the E-CURE onboarding resources and bookmark the Onboarding page.
