The theme of the spring and summer 2019 issues of SPUR: Scholarship and Practice of Undergraduate Research (https://www.cur.org/publications/SPUR) will focus on big data as a tool to promote undergraduate research. Five to six articles from a wide range of disciplines are sought that explore how the applications and use of big data serve to facilitate undergraduate research in a variety of educational and professional contexts. Some topics of interest include the following: - Assessment of the impact of undergraduate research projects involving big data - Promotion of undergraduate research through big-data projects across institutions - Interdisciplinary or multidisciplinary applications of big data in the context of undergraduate research - Ways that big data (or publicly available large datasets) have been leveraged for course-based research projects or for undergraduate research in online learning - Technological applications in the use of big data to promote undergraduate research - Applied research or community-based research using big data in the context of undergraduate research The deadline for proposals is June 1, 2018.
