I am collaborating with faculty at multiple institutions to conduct a survey to collect data about undergraduate research as a pedagogical tool, specifically as a high impact practice (HIP) among faculty members who teach in the humanities, social sciences, and education at four-year colleges and universities in the U.S. The survey instrument for this study aims to collect data about:
a) the knowledge of undergraduate research as a high impact pedagogical practice;
b) the resources available for faculty to support undergraduate research on their
respective campuses;
c) obstacles to engaging in undergraduate research;
d) the professional impact of engaging in undergraduate research; and
e) the nature of undergraduate research projects that faculty have facilitated.
We would appreciate your participation in the study. Please access the survey here:

Your participation in this survey is voluntary, and your responses will be completely confidential.
If you have any questions, problems, or concerns throughout the process, please contact Dr. Eric Ashley Hairston ([email protected]), Dr. Anne S. Choi ([email protected]), or Dr. Crystal S. Anderson ([email protected]). This research has been reviewed and approved by the Institutional Review Board at Elon University (#17-099).
Thank you for advancing our understanding of undergraduate research and mentoring.
