Each of the students carefully prepared a research poster based on tips learned during their orientation communication workshop and feedback from their mentors. They all were well-prepared to share their research projects having practiced sharing their research to their fellow interns and mentors during three separate presentation opportunities over the summer.
The final program evaluation by the interns indicated the percentage of students that reported either good or great skill gains in the following areas:
- – Preparing a scientific poster (100% reported good or great gains)
- – Making oral presentations (92% reported good or great gains)
- – Defending an argument when asked questions (67% reported good or great gains)
- – Explaining my project to people outside my field (84% reported good or great gains)
