There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu
*********************************
How do we prepare our undergraduates at Georgia Tech to take a scholarly approach to research and writing? How do we help our students learn to contribute to a particular body of knowledge and then highlight what they’ve accomplished?
This workshop will feature efforts on campus that are helping undergraduates develop and demonstrate their skills in research and writing. The first part of the workshop will focus on two examples of faculty and librarian partnerships that have successfully enhanced the scholarly research that students do in particular courses. Next, the Office of Undergraduate Research will showcase what they are doing to engage students in research and writing. Throughout the session you’ll hear from students who will describe their experiences and discuss the impact it’s having on their undergraduate education.
