She is currently a Graduate Assistant with UIC Engage, a commu- nity focused project that provides help for less-privileged students from K-8 in mathematics, reading and writing. She continues to work as a substitute teacher occasionally to keep abreast with current practices within the school system. Her work as a Research Assistant for the BEST program has turned out to be one of her best experiences as a

What is the best way of communicating my research to these different audiences?  What would prevent my research from being translated into practice and how can I plan my research to circumvent these barriers?  How can I evaluate if my knowledge translation efforts are effective?These questions demonstrate that knowledge translation is inherent to every research endeavourand graduate students should be introduced to this concept early in their studies to improve theirability to communicate their motivations and implications of their work.ApproachThe Institute of Biomaterials and Biomedical Engineering (IBBME) at the University of Torontooffers a graduate course (BME1450: Bioengineering Science) that focuses primarily

importance ofproviding undergraduate students open-ended, loosely defined projects, and allowing projectteams to assume responsibility for design and innovation.2. INTRODUCTIONEngineers, clinicians and patients often struggle to find balance between innovative technologyand the human side of medical care. Graduate level educational programs dedicated to teachingbiomedical innovation have seen significant growth in the last decade [1-7]. In addition, the fieldof biomedical engineering has seen a dramatic escalation in activity over the past 20 yearsleading to innovative medical devices and procedures. Due to the multidisciplinary characteristicof the field, biomedical engineering has a diverse research impact, often serving as a bridgebuilder between

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.

not easily practiced in cookie-cutter labs [5,6,7]. Collaborative learning includingpeer-teaching has also been shown to increase student learning [10] in a laboratory environment[3]. Though collaborative, student-led inquiry and peer-teaching has been shown to supportmultiple learning outcomes, it remains unclear how much support students need in laboratorycourses and how such pedagogical methods can influence students’ confidence in their learning.In this approach, inquiry-based learning followed by peer-teaching was used in a QuantitativePhysiological Signal Analysis Lab course for 4 offerings. An iterative, design-based approachwas used to continually analyze and improve the implementation of this pedagogical technique.Continuing from a

,institution-specific requirements can have a dominating impact on the depth/breadth balance andhow they are attained. As a primary example, many large engineering schools were forced tomake challenging, required curricular alterations when state legislatures required a reduction ofhours while maintaining ABET engineering hours for accreditation. These changes necessitatedreduction of the requirements for fundamental science and traditional engineering courses fromother departments to make room for courses with heavy design content, societal context, andintegrated communication skills.Due to these changes, the curriculum has become increasingly rigid, which limits students’opportunities to deeply explore technical content. To ensure depth, many
