provided. However, in some curriculum,specifically engineering, a strong emphasis on active learning can be beneficial to students.To address this disconnect between delivery and student-learning, the flipped classroom teachingmethod has been gaining popularity. Additionally, reasonable technology is available to facilitatethis delivery method. The flipped classroom often takes lectures normally given during classtime and moves them outside of the classroom in the form of recorded videos or voice-overPowerPoint slides. The students watch the lecture on their own time and are able to pause,rewind, take notes, and re-watch the lectures as many times as is necessary to understand thematerial. These videos are usually accompanied by some kind of quiz
