This makes everysemester a little different, and keeps the interest of the instructors as they work to continuouslyimprove their course.C. ConclusionThe amount of formative feedback provided by students as they reflected on their flippedlearning experience has provided formative data for the professors as they work to improve theECE1250 class as well as provided students with deeper insights into their own learningprocesses that helped them in this class and which they can take forward with them into futurecourses. The structure and expectations of the flipped learning classroom provided a frameworkfor students to follow as

The laboratory experience culminates with a multi-week group project designed tochallenge the students’ new knowledge and skills.

This may be attributed to multiple factors such as a significant emphasis onmathematics and science in the first two years of engineering curriculum, a strictly sequentialdegree path, and a lack of flexibility in the program requirements [3].The purpose of this work is to detail how a small teaching-focused four-year institutionincorporates undergraduate research opportunities in its academic programs through the use ofindependent studies specifically in the Electrical & Computer Engineering discipline.

better.Computer Science Curriculum ChangesThe effect of being in a combined department is pervasive, starting in the first year. In mostcomputer science programs, Java has been the choice for the first language. Students coming outof high school with Advanced Placement (AP) credit have taken a test in Java to demonstrate aworking knowledge of the language. While computer engineering has incorporated Java in manyplaces, most text books have examples in C++, and C remains the dominant language forembedded applications. Since both computer engineering and computer science students sharethe first programming courses, we chose to retain C++ as the first language and teach Java in alater course required only of computer science students.

teaching platforms: Synchronous class sessions could be held using two services supported by the university: Webex and Zoom. Prior to the shutdown, video conferencing was generally used only for meetings and typically only on rare occasions. Only one program (MS Data Science) had taught classes in remote mode using Webex.  Class meetings: Although some faculty held classes synchronously, some opted for asynchronous pre-recorded videos, and a few faculty used an intentional flipped course approach. Some faculty also relied upon publicly available (e.g., YouTube) videos.  Labs: In the absence of any physical laboratory experiment set ups, many faculty opted to emphasize simulation and analysis of data

These surveys contained questions concerning the flipped-lab pedagogy, the NI myDAQ measurement module, and the Multisim circuit simulation software. Nine opinion questions and four open- ended questions were included in the survey. The nine opinion questions were the following: 1.

This represents a practical application that canfamiliarize students with different engineering theories and concepts such as PWM andfrequency measurement techniques.The system design is shown in Figure 2(a). The fan is equipped with an integral tachometerwhich allows the monitoring and controlling of the fan’s speed. The controller utilizes a simplepulse width modulator to change the width of the pulse provided to the fan and thus, allowing tochange its speed. Although the fan’s speed is calculated by
