Impact of virtual REU experiences on students' psychosocial gains during the COVID-19 pandemic

摘要:

于二零二零年夏季,由于COVID-19,院校取消或远程托管其本科生研究体验(REU)计划。我们进行了一项为期16周的纵向研究,研究这些完全远程的研究经验对学员心理社会收益的影响(例如,身份)。我们从学员($N$ =10)和他们的导师($N$ =8)的角度研究了远程研究经验的现象,他们分别接受了7次和3次采访(共94次采访)。所有学员都报告说,这种经历通过不同的因素非常有益,尽管远程工作,他们还是培养了归属感、自我效能感和认同感。然后,我们综合这些结果与以前的文献,并开发一个框架,显示不同的经验和结构如何影响物理和研究人员身份的发展。获得更多的了解有关因素导致心理社会收益的增长可能有助于REU协调员和REU导师重新设计他们的本科研究计划,并提供他们的学员需要有一个积极的本科研究经验的支持。

英文摘要:

In the Summer of 2020, due to COVID-19, institutions either canceled or remotely hosted their Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) programs. We carried out a 16-week longitudinal study examining the impact of these fully remote research experiences on mentees' psychosocial gains (e.g., identity). We studied the phenomenon of a remote research experience from the standpoint of the mentees ($N$=10) and their mentors ($N$=8), who were each interviewed seven and three times, respectively (94 total interviews). All mentees reported that this experience was highly beneficial through different factors and that they developed a sense of belonging, self-efficacy, and identity despite working remotely. Then, we synthesize these results with prior literature and develop a framework showing how different experiences and constructs affect the development of the physics and researcher identity. Gaining greater understanding regarding factors leading to the growth of psychosocial gains may help REU coordinators and REU mentors to re-design their undergraduate research program and provide the support that their mentees' needed to have a positive undergraduate research experience.
