The general concept so developed is portable andcan be executed in other locations where faculty already conduct existing study abroad programs. We successfully launched anew project-based study abroad program specifically designed to appeal to engineering students while alleviating some of theidentified impediments to participation in

After the second year of study, analog and digital systems were startedto be covered and eventually students were doing a senior design project to practice theirknowledge by creating an applicable Electrical Engineering system. While the old approach wasconsistent with most of the other regional EE programs and it has a logical stackable development,it is postponing the engaging courses and practices of EE program to upper-division courses.Because of this, the lower division EE program was less interesting and ultimately lowered theretention rate. In a survey conducted among engineering programs at the California StateUniversity San Marcos, before implementing the new courses in this study, the EE students had20% less sense

Ourapproach is that students should be probed to complete the work without feeling that they arepenalized for materials they are just learning. Formative assignments allow space for learningfrom mistakes and improving through the continuous provision of feedback by the instructors.Summative assessment occurs through weekly homework assignments, exams, and the finalsubmission of the team project. In the spirit of the PL platform design, emphasis is given onmastery rather than penalization.

Over three years, a first-year engineering CADcourse was “flipped” by the instructor recording short video demos of SOLIDWORKStechniques for students to watch outside of class in addition to step-by-step text instructions.While in class, the instructor gave a brief overview of new techniques, and then the rest of classtime was used to complete homework assignments and group projects. At the end of the course,student perceptions of the course were assessed by an anonymous survey. More than 75% of thestudents responded that they preferred this CAD course be taught in the flipped classroom formatover a traditional
