learning (PBL) is typically part of any given instructional blend.However, one can also use immersive, hands-on design-build activities to implicitly deliverknowledge of the engineering design process 2.We sought to answer two questions: (a) can a course that immerses students in iterative physicalconstruction of student designed devices, rather than classroom activities, improve knowledge ofthe engineering design process, and (b) does a learning environment that also emphasizesacademic advising further bolster this knowledge? So-called “intrusive advising” is believed toincrease academic performance and persistence in majors (reviewed in Banta et al. 3).Course design and interventions: Our study was reviewed and found exempt by our Social

This action could be as simple as illuminatingan LED (both a real LED in the circuit, and a virtual LED in LabView), or something morecomplex, such as triggering motors to spin and movies to play.The specific criteria of the project are: Detection of movements and timing • The circuit must detect at least 2 different events (i.e. movements or other measurements), i.e. events A and B. • Those events must be separated by a time delay T. • The circuit must only trigger if it detects the proper sequence of event A, followed by a time delay T, followed by event B. Reset button • The circuit must have a button to reset the circuitry so that it starts off again waiting to

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

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
