Only twice were students not eligible to receive ASPIRE funding in a particularsemester because they registered as part-time student or had a leave of absence (militarycommitment).Data collected for NSF on the scholarship recipients indicated that the overall GPAs of studentsreceiving the scholarship did not significantly change during the time they received ASPIREfunding. Many of the students who received the scholarship were academically strong students asevidenced by an average GPA of the cohorts of 3.0 or above for all five years of the program.Graduation rate of ASPIRE recipients was quite high.

These professionals face the challenge of designing solutions for the basic needs ofcommunities in situations of social, environmental or economic vulnerability.All this is possible because of our will to create an engineering curriculum that will teachengineering students how to bring their systemic thinking knowledge and skills, as well as theircultural sensitivity, to bear on real-world problems, which means that it is aimed so that studentscan consider the stakeholders, variables and relations within a system.

Most of our education system is not built to cater to their needs, and its results areextremely wasteful –30% failure rate year in and year out in fundamental engineering coursescannot simply be tolerated as an unfortunate reality. Active learning should no longer be anoption –it must be treated as the key ingredient in attempting to start solving this failurecatastrophe. The frame of active learning should contain many interactive elements, includingweekly lectures, in-class activities, online activities71, and hands-on lab exercises –all doneduring the 75-minute class time in each lecture, thus not changing any curriculum structure.Each element of the new paradigm is described below –mechanics of materials

Presently, to design a successful flipped classroom, educators include variousfactors such as a pre-recorded video lecture with pre-class activity, a follow-up quiz on the pre-class work, an in-class activity, and an in-class group activity. Studies [1, 15] show that thefollowing factors have significant impact on the success of a flipped classroom model: 1) out-of-class and in-class elements must be carefully integrated for students to understand the model andbe motivated to prepare for class; 2) shorter, rather than longer videos; and 3) pre-class activitiesmust be coupled with quizzes or follow-up tasks to assess the student's understanding.

Whileliterature indicates that EL programming is more effective when integrated into the corecurriculum rather than distributed in optional activities [13], other studies reveal that changingthe engineering core curriculum can be quite difficult [6, 14, 15]. These latter studies, coupledwith the observed trend of optional EL course implementation, suggest that the self-selectivenature of students’ EL course participation will continue to be commonplace – at least in the nearterm.Given the voluntary status of many undergraduate EL courses, it may be appropriate for ELeducators to consider the cross-sectional representativeness of their course cohorts relative totheir university’s overall engineering

There are a plethora of rationales provided for this low rate ofadoption, including insufficient faculty-teacher preparation to execute IBL, time constraints onprofessors in their teaching role, and necessity of direct instruction to establish
