Idea generation in biomedical engineering courses using Design Heuristics

ABSTRACT

With increasing demand for improved medical equipment and healthcare, next-generation biomedical engineers need strong design skills. Equipping biomedical engineering students with tools for idea generation and development can increase student design success. Design Heuristics are an ideation tool developed through empirical studies of product designs. While identified in the mechanical engineering space, Design Heuristics may be applicable in biomedical engineering design. In our study, we implemented a Design Heuristics session during upper-level undergraduate and first-year graduate biomedical engineering design courses. We examined the applicability of Design Heuristics within individual and team concept generation contexts. The findings demonstrated that biomedical engineering students were able to use Design Heuristics to generate multiple concepts, and that initial concepts produced using Design Heuristics were carried over into final team design. The results support the applicability of Design Heuristics to student idea generation in biomedical engineering design.     

课外活动对大学生动手和社交能力的影响探究

当代大学生的动手能力和社会交际能力普遍需要提高。本文采用问卷调查的形式,对本地大学生课外活动开展情况进行了调查,探索了现阶段的课外活动开展对大学生造成了什么样的影响及如何更好的开展课外活动,并对如何提升大学生动手能力和社会交际能力提出了有用的建议和措施。     

黑格尔的逻辑学对旧形而上学的批判和超越——基于对“逻辑学概念的初步规定”的解读

黑格尔在《小逻辑》"逻辑学概念的初步规定"章节中,对康德以前的形而上学进行了批判,并对自己的逻辑学或形而上学做出了初步的规定。基于对此章节的解读,通过对黑格尔批判旧形而上学的关键点——思想和思想的对象的关系的梳理,阐明黑格尔的逻辑学在何种意义上超越了康德以前的形而上学,并进而阐明黑格尔自己对形而上学的规定。     

共青团组织参与校园文化建设的几点思考

高等院校共青团参与校园文化建设很有必要。共青团参与校园文化建设应强化领导、强化队伍建设,并住硬件设施方面加大投入力度,利用现代信息网络技术,开展具有时代特色的校园文化活动,同时也要强化理论研究和工作交流。     

高校教学管理引入ISO9000族标准探析

面对世界政治经济大格局将要发生的巨大变化,中国教育也必将随之发生变化,我国的学校教育管理也只有与国际教育标准接轨,才能充分适应教育国际化发展的要求,高校引入ISO900O族标准进行质量认证是切实可行的。对它的引入,不仅有利于提高学校整体管理水平,有利于增强学校综合竞争实力,也有利于学校招生就业的发展。

设置一门自主课程:《学校问题研讨》

开设《学校问题研讨》课程有理论基础作支撑,并具有较强的合理性和必要性。它不但能促使担任教师教育类课程的教师的教学反思,提升自身的教学能力与教学效果,明确自身的研究方向,而且更有利于学生自主学习和学会教学反思,提高理论指导实践的水平,强化应对中学教育教学中的各种情境的能力。     

Uses and Gratifications,Journalists’ Twitter Use,and Relational Satisfaction with the Public

This study employed the uses and gratification approach to investigate how journalists perceive relational satisfaction with the public on Twitter, specifically the associations between journalists’ motivations to use Twitter, their Twitter use, and their relational satisfaction with the public. Through a survey of South Korean journalists, this study revealed that journalists’ motivations for Twitter use are positively related to their job-related activities on Twitter (e.g., posting/sharing their news and interacting with audience), which consequently influences perceived relational satisfaction with the public. The findings provide new insight into an increasingly important part of the public’s engagement and news/information flows in the digital media environment. This study expands upon the literature by analyzing how journalists’ motivations for using Twitter and their job-related activities on Twitter are associated with relational satisfaction with the public.     

试论现代教学价值观下的新型师生关系

师生关系是教育功能实现的基石,在师生关系中蕴含着教学价值观。当今社会正处于社会转型时期,教学价值观在发生着变化,时代呼唤着新型的师生关系。民主、平等、互敬、和谐是新型师生关系的主要特征。在建立新型师生关系过程中,教师应起主导作用。
