I’m also interested to develop new teaching strategies to improve student learning. Ongoing project is developing active learning and student-centered pedagogies in Biomedical Engineering introductory electronics course. The project involves students-as-partner to co-create teaching and learning resources. The students’ feedbacks, which include the knowledge and skill sets necessary to program a variety of electronics components, will be collected. Finding such as students’ role, experiences, working relationship with academic staff, and the resources that students produced are analyzed to gain a deeper understanding of the benefits and challenges by involving student-as-partner in the planning and design the course. It is expected that learning, playing, and experimenting would introduce students in an interesting way to the breath of engineering, motivate them in their engineering studies.

In today’s trend of lifelong learning, informal learning is extremely important modern adult learning methods. It happens outside the formal education system or structured training. We hypothesise that an effective mentoring program will stimulate students to think in new and creative ways. For the mentor, the benefit of helping students realize his or her professional goals and aspiration are lifelong, too.
