Student ratings of learning gains. Mean learning gains for common survey items on the SURE, CURE, and GEP surveys. The SURE survey data represent 1973 undergraduate summer research experiences (“Summer Research” data points). The CURE survey data represent 560 student surveys from science courses that did not include a research-like experience (Courses Without Research” data points). The GEP survey data represent 308 students in GEP courses. Error bars represent 2 SEM. See SOM for data on student demographics. Genomics Education Partnership 14
