University of Texas at Austin. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2019 Work in Progress: Curriculum on Diversity and Ethics: Impact in an Introductory Bioengineering CourseEthics and diversity are critical components of engineering training and practice, but mostundergraduate engineering programs do not address these issues in-depth [1-3]. In this work-in-progress, we describe the design and implementation of a novel curriculum focused on theinterplay of diversity and ethics.We launched this curriculum through an honors section in a large introductory bioengineeringcourse at the University of Washington. The creation of an honors section builds on our previouswork, where we discussed

participated in lab andcomputational CURE (Both) and students who only in computational CURE (Computational).A Mann-Whitney-Wilcoxon test was used to compare the Likert scale results from each surveyquestion by CURE group. None of the results were significantly different with the following p-values: Relevance (0.2085), Scientific Practice (0.5708), Collaboration (0.5611), Iteration(0.7405), Discovery (0.7909), and Feel Prepared for own Research Projects (0.9601). Thispreliminary result supports the hypothesis that there would be no significant difference betweenthe groups. Further study of the impact of this computational CURE is needed to examine therole of project design, student major, year of study, and other confounding factors.References[1] C

research interests include novel assessments of educational efficacy, the molecular basis of cell movement, and the mitigation of infectious diseases. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2020 Clinician-engineer career bias and its relationship to engineering design self-efficacy among Biomedical Engineering undergraduatesBackgroundBiomedical engineering undergraduates are often drawn to clinical practice rather than to careersin engineering – 54% according to one study in 2008 [1]. An informal survey of recent careeroutcome dashboards suggests that this remains the case, though medical schools are not calledout separately in those reports. These

, students are developing invaluableskills including: diagnosing, troubleshooting, repairing circuits, designing and building adaptations,soldering, de-soldering, and using diagnostic equipment. These experiences serve to complement andreinforce theory learned in classrooms.Community Outreach and EducationIn addition to learning practical technical skills, students are also challenged by hosting outreach events,such as toy fairs and education programs which can be helpful to both students, parents and professionals.We have conducted 10 events in the past 4 years where the parents and children can come get a new toy,and learn how to modify toys for themselves. Recently we have collaborated with Beta Box, a mobilemakerspace which has enabled us to

four informational BR200 modules in Moodle. These enhance-ments were in place for the Fall 2020 and Spring 2021 sessions. While the instructor rated him-self as very computer-literate, this RISE course proved very challenging. That continued whenthe instructor implemented more RISE principles during the compressed 12-week fall 2020BR200 course. It truly was like teaching a new course for the first time!RISE introduced faculty to the tools needed to skillfully design and deliver courses for this nextphase in higher education.7 Dynamic facilitators who were experts in online learning led it.Faculty built elements of their online course(s) while learning and using research-informed,instructional best practices.
