. Page 23.409.2IntroductionEnsuring that students learn the requisite fundamentals of engineering and its mathematical andscientific underpinnings is a daunting challenge; however, students benefit from theincorporation of other skills and a deeper understanding of the professional environment into thefull curriculum. Such benefits spurred the Engineering Accreditation Commission of theAccreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) to develop an outcomes-basedaccreditation initiative called Engineering Criteria 20001 (EC2000). One of the EC 2000 criteria(Criterion 3 under “Program Outcomes and Assessment”) is the necessity for engineeringgraduates to demonstrate the ability to communicate effectively.While considered progressive and

The Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET)reinforces the need for teaching ethics in engineering programs with the inclusion of learningoutcomes that address ethics. The new ABET Outcome 4 requires students have “An ability torecognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informedjudgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic,environmental, and societal contexts” [1].

The meta-analysis of225 studies on active-learning by Freeman, et al [1] found students in STEM courses taught withextensive lecturing are 1.5 times more likely to fail, earn a D, or withdraw from the course thanstudents taught with active-learning methods in the same STEM course subject.

provided. However, in some curriculum,specifically engineering, a strong emphasis on active learning can be beneficial to students.To address this disconnect between delivery and student-learning, the flipped classroom teachingmethod has been gaining popularity. Additionally, reasonable technology is available to facilitatethis delivery method. The flipped classroom often takes lectures normally given during classtime and moves them outside of the classroom in the form of recorded videos or voice-overPowerPoint slides. The students watch the lecture on their own time and are able to pause,rewind, take notes, and re-watch the lectures as many times as is necessary to understand thematerial. These videos are usually accompanied by some kind of quiz
