摘要

A new course has been developed at the University of Washington that is designed to teach fundamental biological concepts specifically to engineering students who have little or no college level biology background. This course, entitled "Biological Frameworks for Engineers" instructs biology concepts from an engineering perspective and emphasizes the functional aspects of biological systems. It is divided into a series of three to four week modules, each establishing a real-world problem as a context for active, problem-based learning. A combination of instructional methods are used for each module such as lectures, in-class student-centered exercises, discussions, and labs. A matrix of assessment methods are integrated into the curriculum to triangulate on student learning outcomes and to provide feedback to the instructional team as part of an iterative course development cycle. This paper describes the content, implementation, and assessment strategies of the first two course offerings, and describes the key initial findings.
