Entering Research
Author: Janet L. Branchaw
Publisher: Macmillan Higher Education
ISBN: 1319294448
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 1120
Book Description
For students whose experience with science has been primarily in the classroom, it can be difficult to identify and contact potential mentors, and to navigate the transition to a one-on-one, mentor-student relationship. This is especially true for those who are new to research, or who belong to groups that are underrepresented in research. The Entering Research curriculum offers a mechanism to structure the independent research experience, and help students overcome these challenges.

Economics of Education
Author: Michael Lovenheim
Publisher: Worth
ISBN: 9781319282202
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages :
Book Description
While there are many great research articles, good books, and provocative policy analyses related to the economics of education, these materials are often written to influence the policy process and not necessarily for students with limited knowledge of the underlying policies and the economic framework. This textbook is intended to serve as a foundation for a broad-based course on the economics of education. Its goal is to provide an overview of economics of education research: to lay out the evidence as clearly as possible, note agreements, disagreements, and unresolved points in literature, and to help students develop the tools necessary to draw their own conclusions.
