- Cost Brain Computer Interface TechnologiesAbstract:Advancing an interest and literacy in Science Technology Engineering and Mathematics (STEM)fields in high school students through summer and after school programs has been widelypopular since the 1990’s, and these programs are effective at improving retention and persistenceafter graduation. However, there still remains a lack of designing programs to increase interestand literacy of biomedical engineering (BME) related applications that are scalable at otherinstitutions. This is typically due to the challenges of providing costly resources that areavailable only in specific laboratory settings and require graduate level expertise to operate. Toprovide a low-cost and scalable approach to

on virtual laboratories(vLabs). As vLabs are developed, they are adopted and tested at USC and Northern New MexicoCollege (NNMC), the main partnering institution in this project. These vLabs consist of virtualequipment (e.g., virtual network, virtual router, virtual firewall) emulating complete systems on-demand running in NETLAB. NETLAB is a widely used platform for training purposes across thecountry, with more than 1,000 institutions currently using it. USC and NNMC have alsoestablished an alliance with industry organizations and with Los Alamos National Laboratory(LANL) and Savannah River National Laboratory (SRNL) to establish internship opportunities.Currently, student interns are not only exercising technical skills but also

important. To implement an active distance learning environment requires the coordination and correlation of instructional materials, media, and technology. Correlating real-time lectures with audio and video are one of several very important elements to the success of the distance learning. The outcomes of the distance learning class should be the same or similar to a traditional lecture/laboratory class. There should be little or no difference between an instructor’s face-to-face classroom lectures, except instructional materials are accessible in electronic formats for users to download.

Meaningful and consequential learningOur focus of curriculum reform has been towards shifting activity to meaningful, consequentiallearning in activity-based studio and laboratory courses to better prepare students to connect theknowledge they are learning in school to the messy, open-ended work they will encounter aspracticing engineers (NAE, 2020). Meaningful, consequential learning centers on work thatpositions students on teams in the role of engineers where they need to identify core foundationalprinciples as conceptual tools to progress (Johri & Olds, 2011).

The students were challenged with five different assignments coveringdifferent sections of ergonomics, work design and safety. In addition, each student needsto submit a term paper or case study focusing on any specific application area ofergonomics towards the end of the semester. For each assignment, the students wereasked to study and investigate the ergonomic issues from their daily life accessories,classrooms and laboratories and offer possible solutions for the non-ergonomic designsand issues. For each assignment, the students need to prepare a report including the imageand brief description of the non-ergonomic design
