analyzing and thereby assessing howdifferent methods used in a flipped classroom setting will impact student-learning effectiveness.The study compares flipped classroom instruction to a traditional teaching method which is usedas a reference for control study. Data gathered for the analysis is based on a non-biaseduniformly distributed lab setting focused on using smart materials to determine the vibrationfrequency of a cantilever beam. The lab setup is a part of a Green Energy Materials &Engineering course offered in the summer 2014 semester. This class introduced students to theconcepts of Green Manufacturing, Green Technologies in industries, and Fabricating advancedGreen Energy devices. The framework used for gathering unbiased data

,statics) would require the course to cover all of that course’s content, severely restricting the natureof the research projects and the time available to work on them. Also, the program is tailored toengineering research objectives that include elements of innovation and technology development,as opposed to discovery (in the natural sciences). Rather than spending extensive periods in aformal teaching laboratory, the students often spend time in the engineering makerspace and/or inthe research labs of their faculty mentors. Research projects are conducted in small teams,generally 2-4 students per team, and students are expected to spend approximately 5 hours/weekon their research—enough time to make steady progress on their project but not

. The flexibility and convince of learning on demandis an education trend that is constantly evolving. The pervasiveness of communication technology andconnected media enables educators to teach via nontraditional tools such as recorded videos, live streamingof lectures, and live discussion panels. Bourne et al. (Olin et al. 2005) listed three requirements for effectiveonline engineering education delivery. Those are 1) online courses provide comparable quality to thecourses offered traditionally, 2) Students can access the courses anytime and from anywhere, and 3) theonline offered topics cover a broad area of engineering disciplines.The third requirement is still a far reach for engineering education.

be necessary that the student understand direct engineering applications3. Curricula for in-class lectures should highlight real world applications, and laboratories should serve to furtherenhance the understanding through physical models. Furthermore, engineering laboratoriesshould teach the necessary skills that an engineer should possess such as: the ability to properlyuse instrumentation, create models, conduct an experiment, analyze data, and ultimately design4.Additionally, a student should develop a deeper understanding of safety, communication,teamwork, and ethics5. Assuming that each of these objectives is being met, students interestedin engineering should have the confidence and the ability to complete an engineering education.If

biases. Asnoted in a recent Physics Today article on student evaluations of teaching (SETs), “The degree ofdisparity varies by discipline, course, level, institution, and other factors, but across the board,SETs penalize women, underrepresented minorities, nonnative English speakers, and older andphysically less attractive instructors of both sexes,” (Feder, 2020).It is therefore of great interest to better understand the conscious or unconscious biases present inmodern day students with respect to race and gender. Through understanding the biases of currentstudents, one can better anticipate the intervention needs of the future workforce. For example, arecent study of nursing and psychology students identified an implicit bias against
