Abstract

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of the synergetic approach to research education for graduate students in a Hispanic-Serving Institution (HSI). A group of cross-disciplinary faculty members developed a series of graduate-level research methods-related workshops for pre- and in-service teachers. The investigators conducted pre–post tests and survey methods to evaluate all the initiative’s workshops. The findings indicated that student learning was increased and that the synergetic approach was effective.
