Description
Research in the Classroom (RIC), administered by the CUNY Office of Research, supports the incorporation of authentic research activities into undergraduate courses. The initiative connects faculty research with classroom teaching, giving students hands-on research experience through experiential learning while advancing faculty research and pedagogical skills.
The program aims to engage more CUNY students in research-based learning and help faculty integrate research into teaching. Projects include course designs and assessment of student outcomes, such as increased self-confidence, skills acquisition, and classroom engagement. Awardees implement their course designs during the award year and share their syllabi and curricular materials as Open Educational Resources through CUNY Academic Works.
