Outline of Presentation:
• Let’s start with successes in our program. . . .
o Large Growth in physics students:o Physics of Medicine (POM) Program – Major and Minoro NSF TUES grant for POM active learning curriculum developmento Wonderful Networking with all of you!
• How’d we get there? ‘”IPLS” course reform: what worked well and challenges that led to opportunities
• Lastly, where we are now - - and where we are going!

2003: Where we started . . .
![Page 5: Rockhurst University CASE STUDY: IPLS - - - - > Physics of Medicine ILPS Conference March 15, 2014 Nancy Donaldson, Ph.D Professor of Physics Rockhurst.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062314/56649d8a5503460f94a7108c/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Challenge #1: Low Number of Traditional Physics Majors - Danger!
Opportunity: Large number of students interested in Medicine or health care
career
Challenge #2: Students were only taking 4 - 8 hours of required introductory
physics courses (typically in sophomore year) - - -
![Page 6: Rockhurst University CASE STUDY: IPLS - - - - > Physics of Medicine ILPS Conference March 15, 2014 Nancy Donaldson, Ph.D Professor of Physics Rockhurst.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062314/56649d8a5503460f94a7108c/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
General pre-health or pre-med student thought:
“ . . . . . . .well, you know, physics is not really relevant to medicine”
Why not take more???What I was hearing from the students (and some faculty) was . . . . . .
![Page 7: Rockhurst University CASE STUDY: IPLS - - - - > Physics of Medicine ILPS Conference March 15, 2014 Nancy Donaldson, Ph.D Professor of Physics Rockhurst.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062314/56649d8a5503460f94a7108c/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
• Start by asking questions:– What do my students need to know?– What are the big ideas that unite?– What can I do to help them get there?– Goal: develop a strong, inquiry based introductory
physics sequence that stresses the relevance of physics to medicine/healthcare – --- - - - - - - - - - start of IPLS!
Opportunity: So, we worked to help students see and experience the relevance . . . . . . . . .
![Page 8: Rockhurst University CASE STUDY: IPLS - - - - > Physics of Medicine ILPS Conference March 15, 2014 Nancy Donaldson, Ph.D Professor of Physics Rockhurst.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062314/56649d8a5503460f94a7108c/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
– My background: “I was this student” . . . . .
• Constructivist pedagogy• Inquiry based curriculum: based on physics teaching
experience (state grants: CPU, PET). • Building a foundation - - - - wonderful “story” of physics
– Another Challenge: Department climate:
• Pre – med • Pre-PT, OT, CSD
– Previously “Baby” physics – This is where I started reform in 2003
STEPS to IPLS Development. . . .
![Page 9: Rockhurst University CASE STUDY: IPLS - - - - > Physics of Medicine ILPS Conference March 15, 2014 Nancy Donaldson, Ph.D Professor of Physics Rockhurst.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062314/56649d8a5503460f94a7108c/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
– Colleagues from other campuses– Colleagues from other disciplines
• Great value– Strong belief in collaboration– Create interdisciplinary learning for “pragmatic” students– Interesting and I learned a lot!!
Led to Another Opportunity: Worked with other faculty . . .
![Page 10: Rockhurst University CASE STUDY: IPLS - - - - > Physics of Medicine ILPS Conference March 15, 2014 Nancy Donaldson, Ph.D Professor of Physics Rockhurst.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062314/56649d8a5503460f94a7108c/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
So, how did we “win over” the pre- therapy students? Curriculum Development, passion, pedagogy
1. Teach physics as essential to an understanding of therapy – examples:• Force and Torque:• Vectors and Statics:• Fluids: • Buoyancy:• Electricity:
![Page 11: Rockhurst University CASE STUDY: IPLS - - - - > Physics of Medicine ILPS Conference March 15, 2014 Nancy Donaldson, Ph.D Professor of Physics Rockhurst.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062314/56649d8a5503460f94a7108c/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
![Page 12: Rockhurst University CASE STUDY: IPLS - - - - > Physics of Medicine ILPS Conference March 15, 2014 Nancy Donaldson, Ph.D Professor of Physics Rockhurst.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062314/56649d8a5503460f94a7108c/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
2. Semester development: deep conceptual & math DUO - - at the right time to remove fear!
![Page 13: Rockhurst University CASE STUDY: IPLS - - - - > Physics of Medicine ILPS Conference March 15, 2014 Nancy Donaldson, Ph.D Professor of Physics Rockhurst.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062314/56649d8a5503460f94a7108c/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
3. Final Project relating physics to career interests in therapy - --
• Students research and choose group topic w/ professor approval
• Meet with PT, OT, CSD faculty• Very happy with student work!!
![Page 14: Rockhurst University CASE STUDY: IPLS - - - - > Physics of Medicine ILPS Conference March 15, 2014 Nancy Donaldson, Ph.D Professor of Physics Rockhurst.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062314/56649d8a5503460f94a7108c/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Example Intro Student Project: The Barefoot Running Fad
• Student Question: Is it worthwhile?• Investigate: Discrepancies in research• Experiment: Foot strike pattern is crucial• Analyze: Compare shod vs. unshod using impulse,
friction, force vectors, pressure

Force Plate Experimentation:
Forefoot Shod vs. Unshod
Rearfoot Shod vs. Unshod

Promoting Recovery: Relationship to PT
• Knee injuries• Ankle Sprains • Ice massages• Stretching• Strengthening
![Page 17: Rockhurst University CASE STUDY: IPLS - - - - > Physics of Medicine ILPS Conference March 15, 2014 Nancy Donaldson, Ph.D Professor of Physics Rockhurst.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062314/56649d8a5503460f94a7108c/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

2007: on to reforming Pre-Med Physics:
• Challenge: Faculty illness in 2007
• Opportunity: reform Pre-Med Physics– Same emphasis of relevance to medicine and the body– Same emphasis of inquiry –based, deep conceptual
understanding intertwined with mathematics– Problem solving with “big picture” in mind– Success!
“The Physics Curse”(It’s a good thing!)

Summary & Institutional Impact:POM is a recognized program on Rockhurst campus
Challenges: • Faculty Load &Training• Marketing – tips if you want them!• Fit within course load of busy pre-med & pre-therapy
students• Funding • “Real” physics (traditional vs. reform)• Our Dean: Chicken or Egg
• Opportunities: addressed by PASSION for program POM is a whole lot of FUN!

POM Grad Quote . . . . . .
“As the Dean of the College of Medicine addressed us regarding the foundations of our medical education, he presented us this image, showing the importance of an integrated understanding of biology, chemistry, and PHYSICS in medical education. “
“” . . . . you can imagine how having that extra knowledge in the physics of medicine will be a HUGE benefit as I begin my studies.” – Melissa Hager ‘11
