Abstract
Success in research methodology (RM) courses is critical because RM courses teach skills of comprehending, applying, and conducting research necessary for advanced coursework. Our department implemented a lab component to the RM course to help students rehearse and apply these skills. This project summarizes evaluation of the RM lab curriculum.
