Future studies will focus on more iteration to consolidate results and theevaluation of peer-teaching benefits. In addition, the hybrid method is currently being considered forapplication in social science classes.References[1] Cuadra, C.

Bishop[15] makes a strong case for the replacement of in person material delivery, which can be replacedwithout a loss in effectiveness by technological delivery of the content, and replacing it withproblem-based learning which is a much more effective approach for meeting instructionalobjectives.Flipping the classroom can lead to several benefits such as freeing class time for interactiveactivities like active and problem-based learning, presenting the educational material in differentformats to cater to students’ various learning styles and preferences, encouraging students tobecome self-learners, and preparing them for how they will need to learn as practicing engineers[8]. Engaging in the flipped format may also discourage breaches
