Sidebar 29: Psychology Research Experience Preparedness (PREP) program
from PsychSessions: Conversations about Teaching N' Stuff Hosted by Garth Neufeld, Eric Landrum
In this sidebar episode Eric interviews Malin Lilley (Texas A&M University-Central Texas), Dawn Weatherford (Texas A&M University-San Antonio), and Ho Huynh (Australian National University). They discuss the development and impact of the Psychology Research Experience Preparedness (PREP) program. Designed by three psychology colleagues, PREP aims to equip undergraduates with the knowledge and confidence needed to participate in research experiences early in their academic careers. The program includes various modules covering essential topics like the research process, ethics, professionalism, and more. The creators emphasize its potential as an equalizer for students at different preparedness levels and highlight its utility for instructors by integrating it into their courses. Funded by NSF, PREP is free, openly accessible, and tailored not just for top-tier students but for all who might benefit from early exposure to research.
