. Students attend two 80 min classroom sessions and one 3-hour laboratory every week. Two laboratories are held each week with approximately half of theenrolled students attending each laboratory. Prior to this course, all students took a standard “electricalcircuits” course with laboratory.The classroom sessions are organized in the “flipped classroom” format, with the learning materialdistributed through short narrated video presentations posted on the learning management system andsupplemented with textbook readings. In the classroom, a short review of the content driven by students’questions is followed by group exercises in which the students work on problem sheets, with assistancefrom the instructor and the teaching assistant. With this format

An IoT based Innovation Laboratory was created at Seattle University, aspart of

learning strategies can help students process information and solve problems7.That fact that assessment is a highly studied area in research underscores the fact that assessmentpractices play a subtle, complex, and enormously important role in student’s experience oflearning4. Flexible assessment modes can be seen as a first step towards a more student-ledpedagogy, while increasing student’s engagement in the assessment process3. The backbone ofour approach to flexible assessment is to use modern teaching techniques such as the flippedclassroom and studio format as they inherently place more responsibility on the student to learnthe course material. The flipped classroom moves control from teacher to student toaccommodate various learning styles

Simulink is just as good whenstudents learn and use the tool independently without consuming class time. (2) Studentsatisfaction with respect to the availability and effectiveness of the OER materials as measuredby a survey is high.IntroductionOpen Educational Resources (OER) are “teaching, learning and research materials in anymedium – digital or otherwise – that reside in the public domain or have been released under anopen license that permits no-cost access, use, adaptation and redistribution by others with no orlimited restrictions.”1 OER that range from short documents to peer-reviewed textbooks in avariety of subject areas are available at no cost from sites such as OpenStax (www.cnx.org) andMerlot (www.merlot.org).

Project Ponderosa – Bridging Engineering Education to Vocational Training Dr. Scott Boskovich, California State Polytechnic University, Pomona, CA 91768 and Dr. Chris Burns, Boys Republic, Chino Hills, CA 91709AbstractThe application of robotics and automation in industry continues to be an increasing area ofgrowth. Subsequently, this requires an increased demand for design engineering students as wellas knowledgeable users trained for equipment maintenance. However, this can becomeproblematic to adequately provide a realistic environment for both teaching design of roboticssystems as well as the maintenance. In recent years
