Structure of the session
This lesson plan will help students at the beginning stages of their masters develop a system of inquiry with a clear research plan for their research. It will also help more advanced students complete (or round out) their research projects. To do so, this unit will help them become familiar with the nine steps proposed by the Hopscotch Model (Jorrín-Abellán, 2016, 2019) to develop sound research designs.

01 Description
1. This activity will help students taking BIOL 7500 develop their research skills. These include logic, and problem-solving skills (Bauer & Bennett, 2003) and experimental skills like design, data collection, data analysis, understanding of limitations, and research ethics (John & Creighton, 2012; Russell, Hancock, & McCullough, 2007). Students also learn how to seek out and consume the relevant literature and learn the disciplinary language (Bauer & Bennett, 2003). 2. The activity will help students develop their communication skills. Students improve their oral, written, and visual communication skills (Bauer & Bennett, 2003). 3. Finally, the proposed activity will promote students’ critical thinking.

02 Goals
Step 1: The IRML will be introduced to students. A team member of the lab will describe its structure based on the nine steps proposed by Hopscotch. The functioning of the augmented reality content will also be shown. (10')Step 2: Presentation of the activity to be conducted in the lab. (5’) Step 3: The participating students will interact with the content present in the lab, or the 360 Virtual Tour of the Interactive Research Methods Lab (see: https://irml.kennesaw.edu) with the aim of filling out the second column of the table included in Appendix A, by describing in their own words the key elements that need to be considered to generate a well-informed research design for their own projects. (15’) Step 4: Students will briefly share and discuss with the rest of the group the key elements of their research projects. (20’)
