StudentsIntroductionDuring the past two decades, active learning techniques have received a growing attention ineducational research. Particularly in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM)fields, traditional lecturing has indicated a 55% increase in failure rates of undergraduate students,compared to active learning methods [1]. Furthermore, active learning has proven to significantlyenhance students’ examination performance and educational achievements compared to passivelearning [1, 2]. In Biomedical Engineering (BME), active learning can be incorporated throughvarious techniques such as problem- and project-based learning [3]. Such approaches lead studentsto a deeper and more efficient retention of new concepts. Moreover, these methods
