The inquiry-based and hands-on laboratory exercisesin conjunction with extensive pre- and post-lab assignments successfully conveyed the complexbioinstrumentation, bioelectricity and measurement concepts. Upon completion of the course, thestudents were able to successfully utilize circuit models of biological systems, design andconduct laboratory experiments, and design bioinstrumentation systems with adequatebandwidth, amplitude linearity, and phase linearity to faithfully record a physiological event.References1.

the wrong solutionbecause they do not understand the context in which they do their work. How will theyknow of that danger unless their education has exposed them to the notions of culturalcontext, appropriate technology, bilingualism, and biculturalism? As educators, we havethe responsibility to expose as many budding engineers and scientists to the realities ofwork life internationally as we can and give them sufficient credit to motivate them to go.The lessons will stick with some and enrich their lives, but the impact they can make as aresult will be multiplied many fold.
