othersupporting scientific articles. Students defined design requirements, generated evolutionarysolutions through multiple iterations, and demonstrated the utility of scientific literature byapplying knowledge to enhance their designs. This approach facilitated a deeper exploration ofbiomedical technology, involving critical analysis and improvement of materials, methods, andmanufacturing techniques.Seventeen students participated in the project, divided into six groups, each assigned specifictopics related to wearable and implanted technologies. Over 14 weeks, students followed astructured process, making presentations associated with three design iterations, showcasing theirprogress, and receiving feedback from a teaching team consisting of the

] Because ofthe effectiveness of these hands-on techniques, there have even been studies evaluating the designof biomechanics labs that could be done in an online or hybrid class format.[3]The inclusion of numerical techniques in solving the complex mechanics problems inherent inbiomechanics problems has also been of interest in studies on biomechanics classes. One suchstudy effectively incorporated finite element analysis (FEA) into a design project in anintroductory biomechanics course.[4]In developing my own new Biomechanics course, I aimed to incorporate multiple learningmodalities for interacting with the course material which incorporated hands-on labs, exposure toscientific literature and inquiry-based projects.

engineering is an interdisciplinary major that offers lectures, team projects, andlaboratory tasks. One of the milestone courses, Biothermodynamics, which encompassesformulas, equations, and physical applications of biology systems, is traditionally taughtpassively through lecturing and note-taking. In the past two decades, active learning methodshave been studied and promoted vastly in engineering education, including adding group workand peer interaction into the teaching and learning of such courses to increase studentengagement [1-4]. This work-in-progress study further explores the ability to create a“neighborhood” in a sophomore-level Biothermodynamics classroom. The present study aims todesign a new learning environment that maximizes students

to increase students’ technical skills as related to the design process, it also aims to buildconfidence and develop students’ abilities to work not only with their peers but also withinstructors and local clinicians. During the students’ senior years, they are required to take SeniorDesign 1 during the fall semester and Senior Design 2 during the spring semester. As aprerequisite to Senior Design, the Clinical Observations and Needs Finding course is intended tointroduce students to the design process. Projects that are initially developed in ClinicalObservations are intended to be carried to Senior Design, where prototype creation occurs. Thiscourse fits logically into the undergraduate biomedical engineering curriculum, but the

The course itself was focused on the development of software, hardware,and fabrication skills of particular use to biomedical engineers [3]. These included CAD,microcontrollers, basic circuits, 3D printing, subtractive approaches to prototyping (dependingon semester), and digital image analysis. The course culminated in a closed-ended team-baseddesign project with a physical prototype due at the end.Students would have taken 0 to 3 courses prior to the design course in question.
