Instructor's Guide to Prepare Research Group Leaders as RCR Mentors

Abstract

These materials are designed to provide motivation and content sufficient for an instructor to lead a workshop titled: "Mentoring for Responsible Research." The long-term goal is to foster an environment in which research faculty are better empowered to initiate conversations within their research groups about the responsible conduct of research. Workshop participants are introduced to rationales, content, approaches, and resources so that they will have the means to develop and implement concrete, discipline-specific strategies for research ethics mentoring. Materials include a detailed instructor's guide and templates for workshop syllabi that can be customized as needed.
