This paper augments the limited work that has been published regarding flippedclassrooms in heat transfer, addressing challenges faced by both the instructor and the students.IntroductionResearch in engineering education strongly supports the use of active learning strategies in theclassroom.1-5 However, introductory heat transfer courses are often taught using traditionallecture methodologies. Among the suggested pedagogical strategies for incorporating activelearning, flipped classrooms have received significant attention for engaging students

Weekly assignments: every week, students will be given homework problems pertaining to the lecture contents. In addition, students will have to implement a programming assignment during the third class meeting every week. Students will submit a weekly assignment including the solved

These activities allowstudents to explore phenomena through “remote” labs (not simulations), project generation usinga supply of pre-existing materials (constraints that any project has at any time), and in particular,the development of projects based in easy to find at home materials.In this paper, the Author will present three strategies to promote STEM education throughremote learning: 1) Laboratory activities for college-level students 2) Hands-on activities forhigh-school students through informal education settings, and 3) Activities for the public at largethrough social media (Facebook liv and YouTube) and sponsored by public institutions.

Engineering and technology havealways had an important role in addressing the needs of society, it is now gaining recognition foraddressing societal problems. This is recognized and enhanced by an increased representation of womenespecially women of color. This change will result in a positive outcome by bringing more diverse waysof thinking and innovation to the classroom as well as companies that employ them.Literature shows that there are many different reasons for lower recruitment and retention rates forwomen in Engineering and Technology which include preconceived notions on the nature of work andgender stereotypes in these fields.

Also, introducing descriptive digital tags intoassessment material is a useful method to effectively organize and analyze both group andindividual student performance information for such visualizations.We added digital tags to create tag-organized assessments for an undergraduate bioengineeringcourse. The assessments prompted students to self-evaluate after each question. When studentswere weekly presented with tag-enhanced OLMs, one visualizing their calibration and other theirrelative performance to class, there was an overall improvement in calibration accuracy movingfrom Exam 1 to Exam 3, both for low and high performers.Keywords: Calibration

According to the 2009 report from the National Assessment of Educational Progress[1], the proportion of students who are proficient in Science drops from 32% in 4th grade to 21%in 12th grade, leading to a lesser than desired proportion of students planning to pursue STEMmajors in college.

Assessment of the individual student on a technical team ischallenging when submitted content is a team effort.4 Some students in these teamsbecome “hitchhikers”5 or “free riders”6 and cause other team members to resent workingwith these individuals.

They were each assigned 1-2freshman design groups, and expected to meet with these students 3-4 times throughout thesemester. Each peer mentor met in-person with their groups, but this could likely be conductedover video conferencing. For convenience, they were encouraged to meet with their groupsbefore each milestone was due to serve as technical and project management mentors. Peermentors were expected to review project documentation, design process progress, and be aresource for the completion of the project.
