The BMERET program has provided middle schooland high school science teachers in urban settings with opportunities to engage withpremiere researchers in BME laboratory settings at a top tier research university. Withthe combined expertise of the BME scientists and education faculty, BMERET teacherparticipants are creating powerful curriculum to use in their middle school and highschool science classrooms. The teacher participants have experienced greater scienceteaching efficacy then their non-participant teacher peers, which may be as a result of thecollaborative RET experience. Sixth through twelve grade teachers have benefited greatlyfrom bringing the BME lab

Many labs, homework exercises, and activities involve interpreting signals generated by using sensors and circuits of the student’s creation, interpreting those signals using programming, and making design decisions based off of those interpretations. • All laboratory exercises in the first half of the courses are designed to be carried out in groups of two or three, and be significantly open-ended (see Tables 1, 2, and 3).
