Project Summary/Abstract Proposed is an innovative product using the latest biomedical sensors to create hands-on activities for students. It will help teachers increase their students’ exposure of students to health sciences and promote healthcare related careers. Significance: Due to concerns that the United States will not have the workforce needed to meet industry demands for science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) related careers, significant focus has been placed on STEM education. Across the US, the growing implementation of STEM programs has quite visibility taken form through the addition of robotics, maker spaces, 3D printers, and virtual reality into classrooms and after school programs. However, the majority of the fastest growing occupations are in health-related fields, and, thus, it is vital for STEM programs to also provide engaging and diverse pathways to introduce students to health career opportunities. Hypothesis: We hypothesize that a product which engages students in activities rooted in health science will increase interest and the pursuit of healthcare related careers. Specific Aims: To prove the feasibility of the proposed system in Phase 1, IDL will 1) Develop curriculum and stakeholder requirements; 2) Create a prototype system & software; and 3) Evaluate the system with a pilot study with end-users.

项目总结/摘要 提出的是一种创新产品，使用最新的生物医学传感器来创建动手活动， 学生这将有助于教师增加学生对健康科学的接触， 与医疗保健相关的职业。意义：由于担心美国将没有劳动力 需要满足行业对科学、技术、工程和数学（STEM）相关的需求 职业生涯，重点放在STEM教育上。在美国各地， STEM项目通过增加机器人技术、创客空间、3D打印机和 虚拟现实进入课堂和课后项目。然而，大多数增长最快的 职业属于健康相关领域，因此，STEM项目还必须提供引人入胜的 多样化的途径向学生介绍健康职业机会。假设：我们假设， 一个让学生参与健康科学活动的产品将增加学生对健康科学的兴趣和追求。 与医疗保健相关的职业。具体目标：为了证明拟议系统在第一阶段的可行性，IDL将 1)制定课程和利益相关者的要求; 2）创建原型系统和软件;以及3） 通过与最终用户进行试点研究来评估该系统。
