evidence is complete, accurate, and correctly rated on the two scales(knowledge and impact). Tokens are either complete or incomplete; there is no concept of an “Alevel” vs “C level” token. Students may revise and resubmit a token without penalty. This paperdescribes both the implementation details and the performance results of electronic learningtokens with anonymous PR within a course conducted in the fall of 2020.MotivationWe have designed our course around IBL because we believe it delivers superior studentlearning outcomes. Each semester, we seek to make our course both more effective and moreaccessible. We believe that the addition of online anonymous PR enhances IBL in several ways.Though our context is IBL, the following motivations and

. American c Society for Engineering Education, 2021 Investigation on Students' Educational Experience with HyFlex Instruction Model in Two Engineering CoursesAbstract Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, educators all around the world searched for effectiveways to continue teaching. Although switching to online learning seemed to be the safest andmost appropriate method at the time, the virtual setting is inadequate for providing activelearning. Hands-on learning is indispensable especially for engineering programs. In Fall 2020,synchronous online mode was augmented with HyFlex instruction for the first time. HyFlex isshort for Hybrid learning and Flexible course structure. The HyFlex

student learning outcomes wascollected and assessed from the course’s online platform. To determine the effectiveness of usingthe IIS alongside Webb’s DoK as an assessment tool, multiple instructors from the institutionsinvolved reviewed student learning outcomes. The instructor reviews were then assessed tocompute inter-rater agreement scores, with instances producing the strongest agreements anddisagreements evaluated and results discussed. A post-course student survey was alsoadministered to gain insights of how the metrics were implemented for the students, of which,the results were quantified and assessed.IntroductionIn a world that is constantly advancing and facing new challenges, engineers must continuallyadapt and widen their skills to

. We attempt to share our key findings, which may benefit othereducators and help them adopt alternative instructional approaches in other institutions.Instructional challenges in a wide variety of courses such as Digital Electronics, IndustrialRobotics, Programmable Logic Controller (PLC), Software Engineering, System Modeling,Epidemiology, Human Diseases, Environmental Health, and Intermediate Business Analysis weremitigated using alternative or modified approaches. Hands-on and in-person learning activities(e.g., laboratory experiments and data analysis) were substituted by innovative strategies such asonline exercises via simulation, statistical software, enhanced use of audiovisual tools, andsynchronous and asynchronous online

. While the instructor did not teach this course again due to rotating instructor coverage,she implemented this approach in her Thermodynamics course.Details are presented in Appendix A.Thermodynamics (Spring 2020)While an epic finale approach was already planned, the instructor felt it was particularlyappropriate given the quick pivot online during COVID in Spring 2020. All students had beenassessed individually on partial exams and a cumulative FE-style quiz. The epic finale wasconducted virtually on Zoom and was less structured. Students were placed into random breakoutgroups and asked to figure out how a hospital ventilator works with schematics drawn,components identified, and technical considerations and related to thermodynamics and
