Professor Andy Adler Receives The Teaching Achievement Award

February 6, 2019

Professor Andy Adler in the Systems and Computer Engineering Department and Professor Jeff Dawson in the Department of Biology received the Teaching Achievement Award.

Their teaching proposal is entitled: Instrumentation for Human Performance – Instructional Modules for Interdisciplinary Collaborative Student-Centred Learning

Instrumentation for measuring and improving human performance is becoming ubiquitous, whether for sport, rehabilitation or lifestyle. Effectively using and interpreting data from these devices, however, is inherently a multi-disciplinary challenge requiring knowledge spanning several disciplines. This award will realize a suite of student-centred modules that bring biology and engineering students together to work collaboratively on student-generated, authentic, research questions. The modules will facilitate new (or enhance current) courses by giving students real-world, practical, skills.

Congratulations Professor Dawson and Professor Adler!
