This edited volume elucidates models and practices of high-quality mentored undergraduate research in global contexts (MUR-GC), showcases exemplars of this work in practice through four case studies, and offers strategies for professional development for mentors, consistently identified as a high need in practice in higher education. Each chapter provides key questions to guide reflection on these practices. The book addresses a significant gap in research on integrated HIPs and invites readers to consider many interesting questions for future inquiry.


Enacting Whole-class Co-creation: Faculty and Student Experiences of Sharing Responsibility in Teaching and Learning

Enacting Whole-class Co-creation: Faculty and Student Experiences of Sharing Responsibility in Teaching and Learning

Alison Cook-Sather
Forthcoming

Enacting Whole-class Co-creation is a practical, research-informed guide for faculty and students seeking to engage in co-creating elements of an entire course. Drawing on approaches implemented in a single course, Co-creation for Equity & Justice, the book presents six areas of focus for co-creation, each with multiple examples. Designed for faculty, faculty developers, students, and other educators interested in participatory pedagogy, the book offers a comprehensive, example-rich discussion of whole-class co-creation from both the instructor’s and enrolled students’ perspectives. It serves as both an introduction and a hands-on guide for fostering more equitable, collaborative, and engaged learning environments.
