Course-based undergraduate research experiences (CUREs) have gained traction as effective ways to expand the impact of undergraduate research while fulfilling pedagogical goals. In this Perspective, we present innovative ways to incorporate fundamental benefits and principles of CUREs into a classroom environment through information/technology-based research projects that lead to student-generated contributions to digital community resources (CoRes). These projects represent an attractive class of CUREs because they are less resource-intensive than laboratory-based CUREs, and the projects align with the expectations of today’s students to create rapid and publicly accessible contributions to society. We provide a detailed discussion of two example types of CoRe projects that can be implemented in courses to impact research and education at the chemistry–biology interface: bioinformatics annotations and development of educational tools. Finally, we present current resources available for faculty interested in incorporating CUREs or CoRe projects into their pedagogical practices. In sharing these stories and resources, we hope to lower the barrier for widespread adoption of CURE and CoRe approaches and generate discussions about how to utilize the classroom experience to make a positive impact on our students and the future of the field of biochemistry.

与大学生合作，为生物化学社区资源做出贡献

以课程为基础的本科研究经验（CURE）已获得牵引力，成为在实现教学目标的同时扩大本科研究影响力的有效方法。在此观点中，我们提出了创新的方法，通过基于信息/技术的研究项目将CURE的基本好处和原理纳入课堂环境，从而导致学生为数字社区资源（CoRes）做出贡献。这些项目代表了有吸引力的CURE类，因为它们比基于实验室的CURE占用的资源少，并且这些项目符合当今学生的期望，可以为社会提供快速且可公开获得的贡献。我们详细讨论了两种可在课程中实施的CoRe项目类型的示例，这些课程可在化学—生物学界面上影响研究和教育：生物信息学注释和教育工具的开发。最后，我们为有兴趣将CURE或CoRe项目纳入其教学实践的教师提供了当前可用的资源。在分享这些故事和资源时，我们希望降低CURE和CoRe方法被广泛采用的障碍，并就如何利用课堂经验对我们的学生和生物化学领域的未来产生积极影响进行讨论。我们向有兴趣将CURE或CoRe项目纳入其教学实践的教师提供当前可用的资源。在分享这些故事和资源时，我们希望降低CURE和CoRe方法被广泛采用的障碍，并引发有关如何利用课堂经验对我们的学生和生物化学领域的未来产生积极影响的讨论。我们向有兴趣将CURE或CoRe项目纳入其教学实践的教师提供当前可用的资源。在分享这些故事和资源时，我们希望降低CURE和CoRe方法被广泛采用的障碍，并引发有关如何利用课堂经验对我们的学生和生物化学领域的未来产生积极影响的讨论。
