CUREcasts: An Innovative Mechanism to Increase Communication of Scientific Outcomes to Novice and Expert Audiences within the Context of Course-Based Undergraduate Research Experiences

The recent advent of course-based undergraduate research experiences (CUREs) has provided a unique platform for immersing students in the process of scientific discovery. Inherent of this process and of the CURE paradigm is the expectation that the data obtained from such investigations have broader...
