The model for an inquiry-based undergraduate experience has been embraced and is thriving. But the primary focus of the undergraduate participation in research is happening outside the classroom—as an extracurricular, similar to climbing the rock wall at the Adventure Recreation Center, or swimming laps in the pool. What would happen if research was built into an undergraduate course? What if it was built into the single most widely-taken course at OSU, English 1110? Through a unique convergence of resources and people at Ohio State, we had an opportunity to answer exactly this question last semester. Co-authored by two students in the class and members of the team of researchers from both academic affairs and student life, this paper presents a model for curriculum-based undergraduate research culminating in conference-level presentations.
