for education.Dr. Michael B. Lawrence, University of Virginia Page 24.38.1 c American Society for Engineering Education, 2014 A Course in Biomaterials Taught Using the Socratic MethodThe consensus definition of biomaterial is “a nonviable material used in a medical device,intended to interact with biological systems.1” The emphasis on nonviable materials intended tointeract with biological systems has perhaps guided the development of modern day education inbiomaterials science. That is certainly the case of the undergraduate course in Biomaterialstaught at the University of Virginia

themachieve a more in-depth understanding of the material (rather than just memorizing information).Since teaching requires a basic understanding of the material and a plan for conveying thismaterial, teachers often learn by (a) reviewing: working with the material while preparing toteach another, and (b) reformulating: organizing the content in a meaningful way that associatesthe material with what the student already knows. Research suggests that learning by teachingalso helps improve communication skills and that it provides the students with an opportunity toexperience realistic social interactions while applying their content knowledge in an appropriatelearning environment5, 10.Description of the Systems Physiology LaboratoryThe Systems

In this experiment fluorescentmarkers are positioned of the styloid process of the radius, the epicondyle of the humerus, thehead of the humerus, the acromion process and the scapular spine to track the position of wrist,elbow, shoulder, and scapular motion associated with eating (Figure 1-2). Depending on themodel complexity chosen to analyze the data, not all of the markers will be used in the dataprocessing phase.

In the lab guide introduction, we also offer the students with an overall motivation to conduct that particular experiment, as well as the challenges that will be tackled. B. Pre-lab: Before each experiment, the students should answer a series of 5 quick questions. The pre-lab’s role is to allow the students to recapitulate the key points of the theory that will be needed during each experiment. C. Procedures: This section of the laboratory guide contains the procedures that each student/group must take in order to complete the experiment. We provide a

The Cronbach’s alpha for the BSS survey was 0.964 indicating excellent internalconsistency. A confirmatory factor analysis yielded coefficients greater than 0.7 indicating thatquestions intended to address the same latent variable (flipped classroom, muddiest points,design project, class activities, and pencasts) did so.

Approximately 50 engineering students, juniors andseniors, enroll in this semester-long course every year. The goal of the course is to introducestudents to the analysis and design of analog electronic circuits at the core of biomedicalinstruments. The students learn about essential functions such as signal sensing, direct current(dc) power generation, signal amplification, and conditioning, and about the electroniccomponents used to implement these functions: bio-transducers, diodes, transistors, andoperational amplifiers.The course learning objectives include: 1) the
