in writing scientific manuscripts are being developed [1-2], but its use as an instructional aid for teaching scientific writing is less understood [3]. Forbiomedical engineering (BME), technical writing is particularly important: they need to masterboth engineering and scientific approaches to written communication across multiple formats tovarious audiences. We have previously developed evidence-based technical writing modules,tailored to BME students, and vertically integrated them throughout our core curriculum [4].These modules were developed before widespread AI availability. To develop guidelines oninstructional AI use, we first need to understand students’ 1) perception on its utility and ethicaluse and 2) prior and current use of AI

integration within existing, traditional REU programsat three partnering institutions. This initiative aims to foster the development of an EM inundergraduate biomedical engineering students under the well-studied paradigm of REUs.As part of the program, seventeen students who participated in biomedical engineering REUprograms as traditional REU or eREU students at one of the three partnering institutions wereasked to engage in an activity where they defined EM through the creation of a concept map.Concept maps were selected as an assessment method due to their ability to directly assessstudents' perceptions of EM, as compared to indirect assessments such as self-reported surveys.These concept maps were assessed using categorical scoring with six

skills that would properly equip graduate TAs for success in theclassroom and their future careers. The course filled an urgent need in the Bioengineeringgraduate curriculum while the design and content of this course empowered participants toachieve the course learning objectives. Through this course, participants developed an increasedmastery of pedagogical theory and practices, including active learning, inclusive teaching, andmore. Further, through the final project, participants solidified their knowledge by applyingcourse content to their own areas of interest. In the future, we plan to evaluate both the efficacy of the course and the longer-term impacts ofcourse participants as graduate TAs within the broader bioengineering community. We

However, it is essential to note that the “other” category includedgraduate students and post-doctoral researchers, showing that younger educators are engagingwith the community. This engagement means that these students and researchers are preparingfor teaching in their future careers. An additional and exciting note is that all faculty rankspossessed a type of administrative role (e.g., program directors, chairs, or program coordinators).This shows how the Share and Learn events can impact participants and add value to programsand curriculums through potential

Individual test scores were not different across multiplesemesters including the Control and Intervention groups, and team scores in the Interventiongroups were increased by an average of 18% relative to the individual scores. Notably, each testcontained questions that were categorized as either “retention and recall” or as “comprehension”[12]. Comprehension questions assess students’ abilities to apply and integrate concepts in waysthat are useful for engineering problem-solving approaches, consistent with the idea oftransferable skill development. The average learning gain corresponding to the increased teamscores

engineering students feel underprepared when going into the workforce, due to a lack ofreal-world application of the college curriculum and the lack of necessary skills to confidentlymake engineering and business decisions [1-3]. Consequently, the transition between college andone’s first job can be difficult for many graduates [4]. This causes many to seek jobs outside ofthe engineering profession altogether; according to one study, only one-third of engineeringgraduates seek jobs in an engineering field [5]. Furthermore, a study by the Carnegie Foundationfound that engineering schools primarily focus on the acquisition of technical knowledge, leavinglittle attention to real-world application or preparing for employment [6].To combat this issue, the

In theprocess, students uncover important issues like privacy, data integrity, information security, risk,decision making, ethics, regulations, and social disparities in access to care and outcomes.Students find that exploration of these issues adds context and meaning to their training asbiomedical engineers.

inclusive, reflective teaching practices on problem solving proficiencyMotivationDevelopment and implementation of inclusive teaching practices is an important educationalmovement [1]. For four years, we worked to implement three inclusive practices: standards-based grading with reflection [2], [3], co-created assessment [3], [4], [5], and peer review [2] ofwritten deliverables in a sophomore-level experimental design laboratory and lecture course.This work focuses on peer review, though it utilizes the former two practices in doing so.Briefly, standards-based grading (SBG) is a formative assessment approach that allows fortracking of objective proficiency throughout the curriculum and allows for just-in-time

Impact of a Clinical Observations and Needs Finding Course on Biomedical Engineering Education OutcomesAbstractIn the field of biomedical engineering, needs identification and solution development are animportant element of the design process. In our undergraduate curriculum, a course was designedto allow clinical observation and provide an opportunity for students to learn about engineeringdesign and engage with clinicians via completing rotations in medical facilities near our campus.While this type of course is not unique, evaluating its efficacy is not simple. Given the broadrange of institutional resources available- such as proximity to a medical school, or residencyprograms- reporting the quality of such courses within the

disciplines [2]. Engineering curriculums typically well-incorporate fundamentalinstruction through required introductory applied mathematics, physics, chemistry, computerscience, and engineering design coursework. However, exposure to multiple disciplines is oftenoverlooked in the process of developing engineering curriculums [3-5]. Given that majorselection is typically done in students’ first and second years [6-11], sufficient exposure toresearch, career/internship, alumni/professional experiences, and ethical/social insights isespecially important early in college. This will enable students to better choose majors/careersthat align with their interests and aptitudes [12-13]. Engineers stand to acquire many benefitsfrom an interdisciplinary
