California State University attached a robotic arm to theASEP platform and the assembled new arm-rover system was called Articulated SuspensionExploratory Platform System (ASEPS).There are twelve planned weekly labs during the semester, each consisting of two portions. Thefirst portion covers the description of the lab project, including objective(s), required parts/partdescription and step-by-step tutorial instructions. The second part requires the students to applythe knowledge learned from the lecture and the first lab portion to solve the specific project. Toincrease the quality of writing [13] and presenting, the students will be asked to submit designoverview reports in the end of each lab and give bi-weekly oral presentations on their

Students in this course had issues with content such as the equation for astraight line and the conversion of units from rpm to rad/s. In addition, student reflections oftenprovided only cursory responses to the questions and had a right/wrong-bias or behaviorallyfocused mindset. For example, in response to a question on calculating the torque-angular speedrelation for a linear motor, a considerable number of students remarked that their errors weredirectly related to their

Analysis of this midterm exam with action taken for continuousimprovement reveals the following:• Results for Problem #’s 1 and 3 were “Very Good” with the “Objectives met” to a great extent.• Few students missed points on Problem #2 because they did not make the matrix diagonally dominant. As a result, it took more number of trials for the iterative process to converge. This was pointed out when the tests were returned to students.• For Problem #4, the results were “Fair”; there were 29 questions and one-third of students did not manage the time properly.

Quantification of LearningTheories abound for ways of measuring learning. Fundamentally, learning is about contrasts:contrasts at points in time regarding knowledge, understanding, and skill that is transferred fromthe instructor to the student. The transference of information alone does not constitute learningin its full measure, although this mode of learning is easily quantifiable (exams for example). Ahigher mode of learning is using facts to arrive at understanding. To quantify understanding it isnecessary to frame the instrument of measure in the context of the central concept(s); Ericksoncalls this a “conceptual lens” [22]. For example, after learning the facts about expansion andcompression, the concept of heat transfer becomes more apparent. A

within ZOOM with breakout rooms.6. Teaching presence matters. Establishing and maintaining a teaching presence, which is important for student learning, should be woven through the fabric of class time. The structure of TBL provides many opportunities for teaching presence during each class time, without the need for the traditional lecture (in TBL as in flipped classrooms, the lecture is provided on the LMS and viewed before class time). For example, providing brief feedback regarding the readiness assurance quiz questions is an opportunity to provide insight into the concept(s) covered. During team development, which consists of an ice breaker question and a question related to “how to become a highly effective team,” each

Instructors’ feed back is important interms of pacing of the teaching, fine tuning the course content and changing the teaching methodbased on student’s response and performance in the tests.As stated earlier, the main objective of the paper is to disseminate the innovative approach andseek the constructive comments from engineering educators. A follow up paper will be writtenon initial findings after two or three semesters.Bibliography[1] Steif P.

In flipping the course described herein,students spent more time actively observing and learning from the instructor than was possible inthe traditional lecture format. Coaching was more targeted and problem solving became anexploration where strategies were learned, reflection was built in with student peers workingtogether, and informed inquiry prior to coming to class enabled scaffolding.Structure of the Flipped CourseDuring the flipped portion of the

Subject areas that are typically covered in the 2000 level course are Thermodynamics,Fluid Dynamics, Heat Transfer, Statics, Dynamics, Materials, Mechanics of Materials,Engineering Economics, and Machine Design. For these reasons, we believe that the changesassociated with preparation for the 2015/2016 year affected the pass rate, and not the quality ofour students.Table 1: Overall pass rates of the Sophomore Assessment exam for the past four years.
