The first – Electronic Instrumentation (the mainelectronics course taken by student outside of Electrical and Computer Engineering) – wastransitioned to flipped instruction in 2010 using the Mobile Studio as student-owned personalinstrumentation. The flipped environment evolved with basically the same instrumentationtoolset through the Fall of 2013, after which Analog Discovery became the platform of
