Peer-teaching has also been shown to increasestudent learning in a laboratory environment3. This study looks at how inquiry-based learningfollowed by peer-teaching affects student attitudes toward the subject matter and their overalllearning experience.MethodsTable 1.

Technology had on theparticipants’ career paths. Over the nine years, there have been 131 undergraduate students whoparticipated. Ninety nine (76%) of these students were supported via funding from the NationalScience Foundation Research Experiences for Undergraduates program. The other 32 (24%)were supported through institutional funds. More than half of the students (56.5%) were female,26.7% of the students were from underrepresented groups, and 52.7% students without previousresearch experience. The undergraduate research program understudy is a 10-week engineeringresearch project working in research laboratories at the University or a collaborating MedicalSchool. A tiered mentoring structure was developed within the participating laboratories

Scholarsfollowed a three-step process: 1) observe clinical processes, 2) identify problems associated withthat process, and 3) formulate a need statement. Each Scholar maintained an “innovationnotebook” to ensure that observations were accurately captured.5 For a few hours at the end ofeach week, engineering and clinical faculty met with the Scholars to discuss their

The RET program operates concurrently with theYSP, and has each classroom teachers immersed in bioengineering research with the goal ofdeveloping an educational module by the end of the experience. Eric Craven participated in theRET program in 2013 and 2014. In addition to using his module on Thin Films8 at the summerinstallment of BRAIN games, he was also able to present at the 2014 National EducatorsWorkshop.
