Medical Corporation c American Society for Engineering Education, 2019 Incorporating Engineering Standards Throughout the Biomedical Engineering CurriculumAbstractKnowledge of how to identify and apply engineering standards is a necessary skill forbiomedical engineers seeking to enter into the engineering industry. The use of engineeringstandards is often reserved for capstone courses; however, little evidence exists to determinewhether this limited exposure at the end of the curriculum is enough to prepare students toidentify and apply engineering standards after they graduate. The objective of this study is toassess how increasing exposure to engineering standards in the biomedical

Afterwards, students (a)revisited their design with new knowledge fromthe surgical procedure to investigate thepossibility of design improvements. If therewas any need for change, students modified thedesign and then re-evaluated it to determine ifthe new design worked better with the surgicalprocedure/tools while still addressing theoriginal needs.Figure 3 shows an example of design changes (b)before and after the introduction of the surgicalprocedure.

class. While design-focused or other engaging first year courses/experiences are usedfor retention [9-10], we have not witnessed this as we do not have much attrition after freshmanyear. Students who do leave usually do so after completing upper level core courses and leavedue to poor performance or choose a different engineering career path. However, the course doesdemonstrate some qualities/experiences that promote positive outcomes and retention [9-11].Additionally, student’s perception of their literature searching used to develop the papersimproved. This is consistent with collaborative writing effects [12] and will benefit students asthey continue through the program and engage in research experiences.References:[1] T. Nilsson and B

problem couldpartly be solved by allowing students to choose their own teammate, but this may have adverseeffects on the learning of students who do not enter the class knowing a study partner. In ongoing work, we plan to study (a) the quality of interactivity of students conductinghomework this way, (b) the possible benefits to students who enter the course with lower priorknowledge, and (c) conduct repeated measures using the same homework assignments but with anew cohort of students. As a part of this study, we have asked students to record themselves doing the homeworktogether so that we can assess the quality of their interactions. Although we tried to avoid bias bymaking it clear to students that their self-recorded video would have

To address this problem,custom made devices using open-source hardware and software systems can be built with materialscosting a fraction of the commercially available devices. This paper provides an introduction toour work to build an economical mechanical tester to be used in biomedical engineering teachinglabs.Device Fabrication and DesignThe Arduino open-source platform has been acclaimed for its versatility, low cost, and ease of use.These microcontrollers have now been used in a broad range of engineering research and educationapplications.
