Abstract
The faculty expected students in the capstone course to complete requirements for a content-rich course and also produce a research paper in German, but discovered that most students did not have the research skills to write such a paper. After participating in the 2017-2018 Center for Undergraduate Research Faculty Working Group on Integrating Research into the Curriculum, they decided to scaffold research skills strategically into five required courses in the German Studies major:
GERM 301: High Intermediate German I
GERM 302: High Intermediate German II
GERM 315: German Literature and the Modern Era
GERM 401: Advanced German I
GERM 580: Senior Capstone Course: Contemporary German-Speaking Europe
