. Flipped classrooms have shownvarious benefits including improved performance, fewer drops, and happier students.Studio-based learning [15][16] emphasizes student communication, collaboration, and criticalthinking skills; showing improvements in student attitude and content mastery.Researchers have examined how student collaboration and instruction affects the studentexperience. Rodriguez [28] examined how pair programming and student collaboration affectedlearning outcomes, finding that if pair programming is done properly, collaboration increaseslearning and understanding. Blaheta [4] studied cooperative learning and found that students hada positive reaction. Simon [24] found that peer instruction had a positive impact on studentperception of

classroom as a blendedlearning model; where videos are viewed outside of scheduled class time and face-to-facemeetings are used for alternative strategies (e.g., instructor guided active learning, cooperativelearning, peer led team learning, etc.) to promote deeper learning. A 2015 survey of highereducation faculty indicates that 69.5% of respondents have flipped an activity, class, period, orcourse, and plan to implement the model again (Magna 2015).Video Creation by InstructorsFor instructor survey Q1, making of a video to support a course taught by the instructor, 43responses were received. Of the 43, 18 (42%) instructors indicated “yes” to having created avideo, while 25 (58%) indicated “no”.Use of Online Engineering Education VideosQ2 on the

CodingBat and supports C/C++, Java, Python, and Ruby.Python Classroom Response System: Another example of utilizing a web-based codingenvironment is the Python Classroom Response System (PCRS) described in [13]. The idea andmotivation behind the tool is to facilitate the method of Peer Instruction in a programming class.The instructor can create programming assignments and test cases built around expectedmisconceptions in order to observe student problems during class in real time so as to directly beable to address these. PCRS is written in Python and is designed for the Python programminglanguage. A support for C has been established and a support for Java and SQL are indevelopment.BlueJ: The BlueJ system [6] is a free, integrated Java

experiential learning [19]. The keywordsfrom this cycle are shown within parentheses in Figure 1. FIGURE 1. KOLB EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING CYCLE WITH GREENWAY’S KEYWORDSThe concrete experience stage is used to engage students in performing some sort of activitywhere they apply their ideas and skills. Experiences from activities generate facts – the events,moments, and details associated with the activity. Next, the reflective observation stageencourages students to reflect on their experiences through mechanisms such as self-evaluation,peer discussion, and instructor feedback. Reflections generate feelings, an assessment of theexperience from various modes of input. During the abstract conceptualization stage, studentsintegrate their

are expected to serve as a practical reference for engineering faculties toapply new technologies in their instruction. Conversely, a well-designed learning activity willmotivate students to learn with higher interest and better master both engineering andprofessional skills. Lastly, an equal engineering class environment will contribute to the solutionof students’ retention in the engineering disciplines and promote a diversity of work force in theengineering field of the United States [8].Literature ReviewCollaborative learning “Collaborative learning” is an umbrella term for a variety of educational approaches (e.g.,discussion groups, peer teaching, learning community), which emphasize the joint effort of teammembers for a mutual
