Becausethe exams are nearly identical, we can compare to the virtual setting examresults (2020) to the non-virtual results (2019). This is one method toquantitatively assess student learning. Moreover, students were alsoinvited to complete an anonymous survey regarding the efficacy of thevirtual course. The survey included seventeen questions (Table 2,appendix) using a Likert scale to quantitatively assess the effectiveness ofthe virtual offering. The questions inquired about the course objectives,course materials, and machine operational confidence. They were asked to Figure 2: Virtual course module structure.

Furthermore,BME specific programs typically encompass the entire multidisciplinary field, which requiresimplementation of a wide variety of projects [11, 12].To provide a low-cost and scalable approach to introduce BME applications to high schoolstudents, the authors developed a BME high school summer program that was piloted in thesummer of 2019. Aimed at introducing students to the BME field, the program focused onintroducing neuroscience and neuroengineering principles using low-cost and open sourcematerials.Objective:To determine the efficacy of this approach, the following research questions were posed:1) Is it

To address the challenge ofengaging the wide diversity of incoming physiology experience among our graduate students, wedeveloped a partially flipped graduate physiology course that emphasized mathematicalmodeling and computational exercises in class. In this Work-in-Progress paper, we will describethe pedagogical approach and preliminary analysis of learning outcomes and student feedbackfrom the past two iterations of this flipped course.Flipped classroom approach to engineering graduate physiologyIn 2019 and 2020, a total of 53 graduate students were enrolled in the core EngineeringPhysiology
