to measure students’ self-evaluation of their participation and potential distractions during the learning activity.Since 2017, the StRIP instrument has been completed by more than 1,000 students in US universityengineering programs. Seventeen engineering faculty have also been interviewed by researchers[14]. While many students embrace active learning and report positive learning experiences [15-17], the evidence-based results have also revealed a few reasons for their resistance. One of themajor concerns was lack of motivation. In other words, some students would not see the value inthe new learning techniques. Additionally, distraction coming from the internet or social mediasometimes negatively impacts their learning efficiency. It

The resulting themes were developed into acodebook [4].Quantitative Survey DevelopmentIn order to reach a broader population and gather more data, a survey was developed. Followingthe exploratory sequential study design, the qualitative findings were used to inform the contentof the survey. To first develop the survey, the authors of the paper worked independently andwrote several items pertaining to each theme in the codebook. The authors then worked togetherto edit the items and narrow it down to five items per theme, considering the best practices ofsurvey development: ensuring wording was clear

These diverse experiences and a growing passion for improving engineering edu- cation prompted Dr. Miskio˘glu to change her career path and become a scholar of engineering education. As an educator, she is committed to challenging her students to uncover new perspectives and dig deeper into the context of the societal problems engineering is intended to solve. As a scholar, she seeks to not only contribute original theoretical research to the field, but work to bridge the theory-to-practice gap in engineering education by serving as an ambassador for empirically driven

According to the study [4], data communications and networkingcourses are divided into three categories: (1) The fundamental and general topics of computernetworks using some practical examples, (2) Internet protocols, and (3) A set of programming andproject assignments. The traditional approach to teaching data communications consists of lecturescovering theoretical information and mathematical basis, and of laboratory sessions where studentscan understand better the communication process and how to program a communications protocol.It is very crucial to keep up in classrooms with today's industry requirements for graduates in termsof both

Processingand understanding these heterogeneous datasets is best facilitated through methods from data-science, including emerging techniques such as artificial intelligence. Upon identifying thechallenges related to data analysis, the group specifically designated the position of a ‘data-science researcher’ in their team.

We have created a social innovation program called Ignite that uses the principles of human-centered and liberatory design to educate a global community of students on engineering conceptsthrough design thinking rooted specifically in the SDGs. The Ignite curriculum contains three keycomponents: (1) creation of a physical prototype, (2) a community-based design challenge centeredon the use and implementation of the prototype, and (3) peer-to-peer learning, which results in avirtuous cycle of learners who become leaders who generate more learners.

design capstone course is an important experience for engineering undergraduatestudents. This course prepares students for industry by having students solve open-ended real-world problems1. In particular, the senior capstone course involves solving problems posedfrom industry and faculty rather than “made up” projects 2,3 to allow for real-world situationsexperienced post degree. These problems typically require simulations using controlled real-world situations designed to meet specific learning objectives, or prototyping in a real-worldenvironment2 in which students are exposed to real situations with open-ended projects.

Methods: Direct Assessment of Student PerformanceSince a portion of the material in each course was flipped, it was possible to compare student performancewith the flipped versus non-flipped material within each course. Various assignments were assessed ineach course for this comparison. For ECE-1212 (Electronic Circuit Design Lab), quizzes, pre-lab exercises,and lab reports were evaluated. This evaluation was done during two
