Museums have an untapped potential to engage students in hands-on learning. Here, we describe the development of a tiered museum-based program at the University of California, Berkeley as a model for engaging undergraduates in biodiversity science. This decade-long effort to increase student participation in collections demonstrates the mutual benefits of undergraduate involvement. Museums benefit from critical help in collections care and an increased intellectual vitality, while students simultaneously gain essential research skills and an unparalleled exposure to biodiversity. Five first steps to creating a program are: dedicate a coordinator, offer credit, diversify participation, create a tiered structure, and build community.

博物馆中的互惠互助:一种使大学生参与生物多样性科学的模型

博物馆具有激发学生动手学习的潜力。在这里,我们描述了加州大学伯克利分校基于博物馆的分层计划的发展,以此作为吸引大学生从事生物多样性科学的模型。十年来增加学生对馆藏的参与的努力证明了本科生参与的共同利益。博物馆得益于馆藏管理方面的关键帮助和增强的智力活力,而学生同时也获得了必不可少的研究技能和无与伦比的生物多样性保护。创建程序的五个第一步是:任命协调员,给予好评,使参与多样化,创建分层结构并建立社区。
