3. There is a generally increasing trend in most of the outcomes (with theexception of c, d, h, and j) as improvements have been made each year in BME 201. After thefirst two offerings the Committee recommended to run BME 201 more similar to the client-baseddesign courses by introducing the design problem, form teams, hold ‘client’ meetings, andprovide the best practices guidelines for writing reports and the evaluation forms at the beginningof the semester. Additionally, course evaluations revealed that there were too many disparatecontent platforms needing greater organization which could have also influenced team dynamic:outcome d, as well as overall performance in the course. Many of the changes described above in2014 were made to

to complete high-level work the firsttime the course was offered. However, looking at the fall semester courses withonly junior students there was no difference in the post survey of their perceptionof post self-perceived growth. This project-based learning course use of a gammaprototype surrogate shows having a positive impact in the teaching of keyconcepts regardless of instructor or time. Furthermore, students learning ofinnovative skills, prototyping, and design could improve their ability to tacklefuture difficult concepts. Application of such a course in either freshmen year orprior to their senior design could greatly benefit students.Further analysis would need to be conducted to look for differences in studentdesign challenges

Research Experience in a bioengineering laboratory at a major researchuniversity can enhance the knowledge of a high school pre-engineering or science teacher,making it possible to more effectively convey the nature of the scientific process inbioengineering to his or her students. In combination with guided instruction in Common CoreState Standards and Next Generation Science Standards-aligned curricula design, the laboratoryresearch is more effectively translated and applied in high school science classrooms. TheBioengineering Department at the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC) is ideally positioned toimplement such a combined experience for local high school teachers, which in turn will have adramatic impact on one of the most diverse

. CIRTL has local programs that differ at each university, but also has programsthat can be accessed by anyone. CIRTL offers two 8-week MOOCs about teaching throughEdX that are designed for asynchronous engagement. The instructors of the MOOCs encouragethe formation of local MOOC-centered learning communities (MCLCs) of students enrolled inthe MOOC at each university, facilitated by a leader. CIRTL provides a MCLC facilitator’sguide to assist leaders. Second, CIRTL sponsors weekly “CIRTLcasts,” one hour sessions thatdo not require registration, and focus on many topics in teaching.There is considerable evidence from a variety of sources that teaching preparation is beneficial toSTEM graduate students. The most comprehensive study on the impact of

OVERVIEWA team of engineering and medical faculty developed a program to improve team-based designeducation for Scholars (undergraduate and graduate engineering students). The first aim was todevelop and deliver an in-depth biomedical engineering summer experience, involving clinicalimmersion and practical training on med-tech innovation, called the Clinical BioengineeringScholars Program. The second aim was to enhance the capstone design experience with newdesign projects to be designed and developed, which were discovered through the needs findingand needs specification process during the summer immersion. An overview of the program waspreviously described.8,9Briefly, the program was based on the Biodesign process, an experiential method based on

Ifthey failed to do so, they were required to return on a different day to re-take the quiz. Thefailure rate on the quiz was approximately 6%.Teams were required to create both first- and second-generation prototypes of a functioningdevice. In fact, teams were suggested to create two first-generation prototypes – one for each oftheir top two conceptual designs. The first-generation prototypes were required to demonstratethe primary function of the device; they could omit any secondary functions or features. Thesewere tested, and presented before the rest of the class to garner feedback. The
