Society for Engineering Education, 2021 GIFTS: A COVID inspired accessible first year design activity appropriate for an introductory course.The goals of our first semester, single credit, workshop-style Introduction to BiomedicalEngineering course are to introduce students to the discipline and our curriculum, to performquantitative problem solving, to practice effective teamwork, and to apply the design process. Thecourse covers these goals in a project-based learning style by stepping through the design processfor a single device. The course is also scenario-based, in that students receive memos from afictitious company that addresses the team as professionals, rather than students. The weekly courseformat is to

We have chosen to do most this evaluation in the Project Management/Capstonetwo-semester course sequence. In the first semester, students learn the theory and basic practicesof project management, and also define, plan and begin their capstone project. In the secondsemester they complete their group project.

Specifically, the intervention requiredthat students on a team rotate through leadership roles in four key areas: primary research,secondary research, training-building-testing, and project management. The team lead for eachrole completed associated documentation and coached their successor on how to succeed in thatrole. This study leverages a cooperative learning approach in order to provide more equitableaccess to learning for all students. Implementation of such approaches in first-year contexts is ofparticular importance, as these classes are formative for how students view teamwork.Research ContextThis research was

One benefit of thesecircuits is that they can be used with an input device (guitar) and an output device (audio amplifier)and students can physically observe (and hear) the results of their design. One particular benefit ofthis approach is a greater understanding of frequency response characteristics, as students are ableto hear the results.In this work, several lab projects were
