likely that students see physics class as useless and irrelevant to life
sciences. Concepts of physics are vital in oder to understand physics based
technological tools and biophysical topics essential and relevant for life
sciences. This review summarizes approaches for improving teaching and learning
in introductory physics courses to life science students in the SCALE- UP
style. We also discuss our experiences in adapting IPLS Courses to better meet
the needs of life sciences students. to better meet the needs of life sciences
