-person senior-exit debriefing session conducted by the BME program director.Two student cohorts, one on the old track and one on the new track, were assessed uponcompletion of their respective design sequences, and the results were compared between the twogroups using the Mann Whitney U-test for statistical significance (p<0.005). Consistency inresponses among the three instruments was sought as an indication of a valid observation.In May 2018, 42 seniors completed the old sequence and 27 of them participated in theassessment. In May 2019, 43 seniors completed the new sequence and 22 of them participated inthe study using the same assessment methods.The study protocol was reviewed and approved by the Institutional Review Board before thestudy

However, the grading strategy inmost traditional BME courses revolves around assigning points to student work based onapparent quality or degree of completion. Awarding “partial credit” is time-consuming and oftenis not closely mapped to learning objectives [1]. As a result, students often focus on how manypoints they earned relative to their perceived level of effort
