classrooms are part of the educational movement toward student-centered and problem-based learning [3]. In a flipped classroom, more of the traditional didactic portion of the classtakes place online, often using video tutorials. The videos are ideally much shorter and morefocused than typical in-class lectures [4]-[6]. This frees up class time to engage in higher-orderlearning strategies, rather than the more basic transfer of and review of information. Theclassroom is used to foster connections and active learning, with students engaging in hands-onactivities, projects, and/or problem solving [3],[7]-[11]. Students spend more time learning asstudent-to-student and student-to-teacher interactions increase [10],[12]. Faculty can provideimmediate

mounting evidence in support for collaborativeapproaches like problem-based or project-based learning. In thinking about creating classroomenvironments that encourage collaboration and critical thinking, types of assessments should becarefully considered.Using Assessments to Promote LearningHow instructors measure student success influences course outcomes. Course assessments are akey tenant of course design and determine the metrics of measurement for student proficiency incourse learning outcomes (Wiggens & McTighe, 1995). Traditional assessments, like multiplechoice tests and problem-sets, are prevalent in engineering education (Claris & Riley, 2012;Nicol, 2007). While the literature includes some benefits of these types of assessments

This paper presents preliminary, yet promising, results of empirically miningwords that demonstrate a curious disposition (of the students) in text data produced by studentsin response to thought-provoking and critical-thinking exercises. The success of our projectcould positively impact efforts to assess both curiosity and its impact on educational outcomes.For many decades, psychologists have wrestled with understanding the nature of curiosity.Recent work by Grossnickle [9] has provided a framework for understanding facets, factors anddimensions of the construct of curiosity that are relevant to the education audience

AM machines are used widely bystudents [1]. The ease of prototype manufacturing in 3D printing encourages students to preferAM machines to conventional manufacturing machines in building their projects.

Thesefindings of the context-dependent nature of comprehension align well with the knowledge inpieces perspective of conceptual change, which posits that students’ conceptual knowledge is acollection of pieces that are cued depending on the context of the problem. While there is stillconsiderable debate about whether conceptual knowledge is in pieces or more monolithic [2],[7], [26], [27], we based our project on the knowledge-in-pieces perspective based on itsalignment with prior findings in the micro-level view of representations.The context-dependent nature of cognition has been
