Abstract
Students in BAE 465: Biomedical Engineering Applications have been writing projects for the World Wide Web (WWW) since 1994. During that time, 170 students completed 47 projects. These projects have allowed students to learn technical material and develop Web skills, to produce permanent, professional examples of their scholarly work, and to write for a large and diverse audience. The students approached these projects with more enthusiasm and pride than normal term papers and valued their resultant products. With these projects, students have became both authors and authorities in an area of biomedical engineering.
