Implementing Experiential Learning In Biomedical Engineering

（59）本项目实施主动的、基于体验的学习，以改善杜兰大学生物医学工程师的教育。本科课程的修改基于科尔布的学习周期，鼓励同伴互动，采用多种学习方式，并促进对课程材料的深刻理解。该项目涵盖了大量从基础到高级的本科生物医学工程课程的整个学习周期，从而提高学生学习复杂的跨学科生物医学工程材料的能力。课堂和实验教学通过八门新的或经过实质性修订的课程连接起来，这些课程涵盖了本科课程。这些课程将理论与实验和计算实验经验相结合，以建立学生对物理和生理过程的直觉。此外，一套从科学、数学和工程基础到生物医学工程应用的“桥梁”核心课程已经开发出来，以促进从传统工程研究到生物医学工程研究的进展。

Engineering - Other (59) This project is implementing active, experiential- based learning to improve the education of biomedical engineers at Tulane University. Undergraduate curricular modifications are based upon Kolb's learning cycle, which encourages peer interactions, engages multiple learning styles, and promotes a deep understanding of course material. The project encompasses the entire learning cycle within a large set of basic- to- advanced undergraduate biomedical engineering courses, thereby increasing students' capacity to learn complex, interdisciplinary biomedical engineering material. Classroom and laboratory instruction are linked through eight new or substantially- revised courses that span the undergraduate curriculum. These courses combine theory with bench- top and computational laboratory experiences so as to build students' intuition of physical and physiological processes. In addition, a core set of courses that "bridge" from science, math and engineering fundamentals to biomedical engineering applications has been developed to foster the progression from the study of traditional engineering to that of Biomedical Engineering.
