0453339Richard L. GoldbergThis project is a continuation of the successful NSF-supported project (award #9981867) in which undergraduate students designed and built some 15 custom devices for people with disabilities. The objectives of the proposed activities are to enhance engineering education, provide students with insight into careers in biomedical engineering, improve the quality of life of people with disabilities, and serve the community. Due to the success of the previous effort, a new design class was created in 2003, called Rehabilitation Engineering Design. Assistive technology projects are now developed as part of this new class, which also covers important issues in engineering design, communication, ethics, and rehabilitation engineering. Students will spend the semester designing and building the device, and at the end of the semester, the students are to give the device to the disabled individual(s) and their therapists. The class is to be supported with lectures by the instructor and guests, as well as field trips, writing assignments, and oral presentations.The Principal Investigator is to provide an annual report that includes a description of the projects successfully completed during the previous academic year. The report will be combined with similar accounts from other NSF-supported Design Projects and published in a book for general distribution.March 7, 2005

0453339理查德·L Goldberg该项目是NSF支持的成功项目（奖项#9981867）的延续，在该项目中，本科生为残疾人设计和建造了大约15个定制设备。拟议活动的目标是加强工程教育，为学生提供生物医学工程职业的见解，改善残疾人士的生活质量，并服务社会。由于先前的努力取得了成功，2003年创建了一个新的设计类，称为康复工程设计。辅助技术项目现在作为这个新课程的一部分开发，它还涵盖了工程设计，通信，道德和康复工程的重要问题。学生将花费学期设计和构建设备，并在学期结束时，学生将设备交给残疾人及其治疗师。本课程将由讲师和嘉宾授课，以及实地考察，写作作业和口头报告。主要研究者将提供年度报告，其中包括对上一学年成功完成的项目的描述。该报告将与其他NSF支持的设计项目的类似账户相结合，并出版在一本书中，供普遍发行。
