Paper ID #32794Low-Barrier Strategies to Increase Student-Centered LearningMiss Nicole Erin Friend, University of Michigan Nicole Friend is currently a PhD student in the Biomedical Engineering program at the University of Michigan. She received her B.S in Bioengineering: Biosystems from the University of California, San Diego in 2017. Nicole’s research interests are centered around regenerating vasculature in ischemic envi- ronments. Nicole is also interested in more broadly defining the field of tissue engineering and regenera- tive medicine to inform curriculum design and student career trajectories.Cassandra Sue Ellen

partnerships funded through NSF as wellas the stressing of convergence research represent highly impactful strategies.In this contribution, we highlight the approaches taken by an interdisciplinary team of scholarsincluding two early-career scholars and their mentors who form the Renaissance Foundry ResearchGroup (RFRG, the “core team”) as related to seeking and obtaining grant funding as applied toadvancing engineering education. Of particular emphasis is the “scaling of teams” which herein isdefined as the process of knowing when to and actually bringing in additional scholarly voices (i.e.,upscaling) or moving forward just with the core team (i.e., downscaling) to support these activitiesas related to various funding opportunities. As part of this

90% of my students (N=87) strongly agreedthat sharing my teaching philosophy is critical. Additionally, underrepresented students wereempowered and archived more than half the “A”s in my courses. In conclusion, since equal is notalways fair, instructors must make their expectations exceptionally clear to ensure that anystudent can succeed and earn an “A.” I believe it is time for educators to polish their teachingphilosophy, create appealing visual models, and share them with their students.IntroductionDeveloping a Teaching Philosophy Statement (TPS) is central in any academic career [1]. TPSdeclares the educator’s approach to teaching and learning. Creating a teaching philosophyengages educators in metacognitive reflection on what they

created by the previous instructorexplaining regression.Module 4 was on regression, and they were asked to download a data file from the web and performlinear regression. The linear regression content was taught through a video recorded by the previousinstructor.Finally, in module 5, students had to create PowerPoint slides for practicing interview skills. So they hadto come up with answers to possible interview questions like "tell us about yourself," or "why did youapply for this job position," "what type of position do you see yourself working five years from now?"Links to the Career Resource Center were provided.As you can see, the MS Office component was taught through Lynda.com, with low involvement of theinstructor on this topic.
