This topic is covered in a wide array of disciplines (traditional engineering,biomedical engineering, natural sciences, applied sciences) and to a diverse group of students even withina single graduate class such as in the Harvard-MIT HST Division. In order to make the moduleinteresting to such a broad range of students, the fundamental concepts of capillary filtration are presentedusing a How People Learn legacy cycle format, in which a clinical case serves as the unifying challengeand intellectual basis of the module. Students complete the first exercise prior to the in-class lecture.Both on-line learning exercises are delivered on-line using the CAPE/elms learning technology that hasbeen developed as part of the VaNTH (Vanderbilt
value is not the goal, so they needto think of some means besides an equation to reach this goal. And in the latter case thestudent may simply think they can use the heuristic of process of elimination to rank thechoices on the basis of one of the parameters given.Ranking tasks can also be used to help students better understand equations as models—representations—of physical systems and how common sense ideas they have affect howthey try to apply equations. For example, the ranking task shown in Figure 4 was givenas a homework task in a general physics course enrolling engineering technology majorsafter Newton’s second law had been introduced. Two thirds of the students (19/29)produced a ranking of E first, A and D tied for second, C fourth, B
