AB  - Bio-inspired design (BID) fosters innovations in engineering. Learning BID is crucial for developing multidisciplinary innovation skillsof designers and engineers. Current BID education aims to enhancelearners’ understanding and analogical reasoning skills. However,it often heavily relies on the teachers’ expertise. When learnerspursue independent learning using some educational tools, theyface challenges in understanding and reasoning practice withinthis multidisciplinary field. Additionally, evaluating their learningoutcomes comprehensively becomes problematic. Addressing thesechallenges, we introduce a LLMs-driven BID education methodbased on a structured ontology and three strategies: enhancingunderstanding through LLMs-enpowered "learning by asking", assisting reasoning by providing hints and feedback, and assessinglearning outcomes through benchmarking against existing BIDcases. Implementing the method, we developed BIDTrainer, a BID education tool. User studies indicate that learners using BIDTrainerunderstood BID knowledge better, reason faster with higher interactivity than the baseline, and BIDTrainer assessed the learningoutcomes consistent with experts.
