This week, Dr. Reck is attending the Accessibility in STEM 2026 Conference at NC State. We are excited to share how we have applied engineering design in our research to improve accessibility in lab courses.

We have been collaborating with the Grainger College of Engineering Lab and Design Community of Practice to identify barriers for students with #disabilities in lab and design courses. We will share our initial findings at #FIE2025 this afternoon. We appreciate the support from the IDEA Institute for this project.

At FIE2024 we shared an assignment modification to the temperature sensor lab in BIOE415. The goal was for students to be able to critically think about the difference between doing analysis by hand, with purpose built and validated software, & with a tool based on a large language model. This animation shows some of the slides from our presentation today. #FIE2024 #engEdu #higherEd #InstructionalLabs #GenAI #Bioengineering #DataAnalysis #CurveFit #academicMastodon @academicchatter

Thank you to everyone who attended our lunch and learn workshop today. We had great conversations about applying engineering design to lab course development. I enjoyed sharing our work over the past year to make BIOE415 more inclusive and valuable for the students. Thank you to the Kern Family Foundation and AE3 for supporting this event!

@RebeccaEE just presented our paper about how we applied #EntrepreneurialMindset (EM), #HumanCenteredDesign (#HCD), and #UniversalDesignforLearning (#UDL) along with #inclusiveTeaching resources to improve a Bioinstrumentation #Laboratory course at #ASEEAnnual.

Innovation in Instructional Laboratories (I² Lab) is a research group led by Dr. @RebeccaEE. The goal of the lab is to make instructional laboratories accessible and inclusive spaces for all students, allowing them to learn from hands-on STEM experiences, by creating resources for lab instructors that are informed by rigorous research in all aspects of laboratory course design.
