areimportant, their real-world relevance, and how it will impact the students’ future career in engineering.Project Based Learning (PBL) is an alternative method that is an inductive pedagogy, which begins witha real world problem or observation. In addition to the potential for improved student outcomes withinductive learning, the real world nature of PBL modules can lend itself for engineering design experiencesthat may also include broader Entrepreneurial Minded Learning (EML). The goal of this project was to introduce a PBL module with a real world scenario into“Biomechanics” courses that cover the theory and methods for solving dynamics problems. In addition tolearning the related angular kinematics concepts, this project required students

, and the few that I had spoken with were very experienced surgeons. They’re brilliant, but extremely stubborn… it’s very difficult to change their way of thinking. I was interning at a medical device company and that was what was more concerning, was trying to get them to agree, or we would show them statistics and they would say ‘I don’t think so’. Working with doctors, or future doctors, they haven’t yet been locked down in their way of thinking. They still had their non-engineering mind providing ideas, but they were open to other ideas. That was really refreshing. Not all doctors think they’re the smartest ones in the room. It changed my perspective of doctors.”Similarly, students also provided
