dynamics that occur at both curricular stages, however, can oftenbe challenging. Student population, course structure, project scope, timeline, and courseworkload are just a few factors that may influence how effective students are as team membersand what strategies instructors may use to promote healthy team dynamics.Previously, the implementation of an equity minded strategy for promoting healthy teamdynamics was explored in an introductory biomedical engineering (BME) course [1]. The use ofasset-based activities throughout the course provided introductory students with a mechanism toshare about their individual assets with their teammates and complete their team-based designproject through the lens of team member assets and interests.

exercises with engineers in mind. • The focus was primarily on identifying ethical content for the medical instrumentation and biomaterials classes that presented ethical and character dilemmas. • Faculty members teaching these classes actively participated in the collaborative development process and attended a book club on ethics guided by the ethics expert to improve faculty comfort with ethical content and with teaching ethical concepts. 3. Initial Implementation: • The developed ethical modules and learning exercises were successfully implemented in both courses following the first summer. • The effectiveness of these

Navigating the rules and regulations of the process of Food and Drug Administration approval can be difficult. By teaching students about this process early on, they will likely keep these restrictions in mind when developing a new technology
