experience for Master’s studentsthat will fill in knowledge gaps and meet their unique educational and professional goals duringtheir accelerated (~1 year) degree program.B. Our Unique ApproachA one-semester graduate-level course in BME design was developed that incorporated a blendedlearning approach with core video lectures outside the classroom and collaborative in-classlearning experiences. The course enrolled 12 students (4 teams) in the Spring of 2015. Fordevelopment and delivery of this new course, funding and in-kind support, includingcollaboration with an educational technologist from the Center for Teaching and Learning(CTL)b, was provided by a faculty grant from the Columbia University Office of the Provost onHybrid Learning Course

address some of these issues. After the 2014 changes, the Committee notedthat the reduction in scores for outcomes a, b, and d were a result of the greater flexibility in thenew design project solution, however this decline did not persist. Overall scores in the last twoyears for sophomores have been high (above four, which is the benchmark expectation for seniorperformance). A potential major contributing factor beyond the course improvements isconsistency – all students in BME 201 have very similar experiences, i.e., same client, sameadvisor, same project and same resources. The students are allowed to explore and develop theirideas within these confines, thus eliminating any complicating factors or influences onperformance due to varying

session. Thus, in addition to the online preparation throughout thesemester, students are motivated to review the material prior to each practice. One of the lastworkshops of the residency program is a design challenge, where students draw from their priorlearning to come up with solutions to healthcare problems they’ve observed in their clinicalworkshops. The final week of the course is used to integrate themes across the course.Figure 3: Details of the online structure for Module 2 on Myocardial Contractility and the EKG.Each module has one week of online preparation, and one day of the on-site residency.

typicallytakes two hours and supplies cost $1 per toy. As shown in Figure 2, this includes opening theelectronic toy and finding the circuit that controls its activation (Figure 2A and B). A piece ofwire is then used to determine how the circuit is completed to activate the toy, thereby initiatingsounds, lights, and/or movement (Figure 2C, enlarged in D). A female jack is soldered to a wireand the other end of that wire is soldered to the identified points on the circuit (Figure 2E and F).Finally, the toy is closed (Figure 2G) and repackaged. Toy adaptation is a low-risk introductionto design, circuitry, soldering, and use of basic hand tools. In addition, the clear societal impactof toy adaptation may make it an attractive engineering application to

the semester (see Appendix A) and became less detailed as the semesterprogressed (see Appendix B).Hands-on activities introduced concepts that the students had not previously studied. Rather thanpresenting the mathematical derivation as the introduction to a topic, students were again dividedinto groups and given materials and actions to impose on these materials. A hands-on activity foreach major course topic was created (reactions, stress/strain axial loading, torsion, and bending)to introduce the basic concepts. A provided outline for these “discovery labs” aimed to help thestudents to first observe and describe a physical phenomenon and then represent itmathematically. For example, students were asked to build models of different joints

End-of-semester writtenreflections in response to a set of open-ended questions have helped us to capture the key pointsstudents are taking away from the course, as well as their self-identification of how well they aremastering different aspects of the design process.2 We have obtained IRB approval to usehomework submissions and end-of-semester reflections from consenting students as part of ourassessment data for the class (Spring 2016: 104 students; Fall 2016: 78 students).Overall, the course has thus far been well-received by students, with very strong final courseevaluations. We analyzed the end-of-semester student reflections to determine, among otherthings, which aspects of the course they most liked and disliked (Table 2a, b), as

Schwartz,Bransford, and Sears (2005) have hypothesized that these two dimensions co-evolve in what theyhave called the “optimal adaptability corridor” (OAC). 7 The OAC
