“explorationactivities” in section 2 revealed students’ appreciation for connecting in-class discussions andtextbook readings to current events and to research in physiology and biomedical engineering.Although we did not measure student motivation, we hypothesize that student motivation wouldbe increased when provided with opportunities for engagement with authentic biomedicalproblems [13]. Thus, retention/recall and comprehension may not be the only relevant metrics oflearning [14].Literature Cited[1] P. Black and D. Wiliam, “Developing the theory of formative assessment,” Educ.

One of the most widely knownclassroom assessment techniques is known as muddy points, in which the students are asked towrite down the concept(s) that they found most confusing during that class period.Many large lecture courses use muddy points as an instructional assessment technique that allowsthe instructor to gather information at the end of the class about the topics which are not clear tothe students. Using this information, the amount of lecture time allocated to a specific topic canbe increased or decreased to match students’ feedback and emphasize the areas where thestudents need more support 8. This technique offers a two-way feedback mechanism

Therationale for this is slightly different, as it is intended to let students acclimate to college lifewithout the stress of maintaining a GPA before they enter into the sophomore year where there ismore intelectual rigor.More research is necessary to determine how best to measure student academic success. Thisstudy merely indicates that what is currently accepted as an indicator for student ability mayhave limited utility and alternative options should be explored. Page 26.589.11 References1 Bloom, B.
