Our project iteratively builds across three years such that year 1 cohorts haveat least two participating teachers per county who teach 6th graders. The year 2 cohort will add7th grade teachers from the same schools and year 3 cohort will be designed during year 2.Because the project adds new teachers from a consecutive grade level each year, we will havestudents participating who represent a mix of new to the lessons and activities as well aslongitudinal.

Interest in this program has been strong and grows every year demonstrated by the increasein applications to the program from bioengineering students. Feedback from past participants (see section4) support the value of experiential learning which introduces students to clinical end users and teachesstudents valuable industry skill sets previously only available as “on the job training.”The Clinical Immersion summer program provides a valuable opportunity for students to observe

The author chose todevelop a workshop on improving student engagement in the classroom. The workshop coverstechniques to passively engage students and several active learning techniques. Understanding that faculty time is valuable and that the author had not been to any teachertraining over the past 15 years, the author chose to create an extremely short workshop that onlylasted one hour.
