for creation of the working group was to enhance prevalence ofactive learning in engineering classes in order to improve both retention and graduation rates,thus keeping these students in the engineering pipeline.Method: The team created an intensive summer program where faculty had to commit to attend akick-off meeting, a minimum of four 2-hour working sessions, and a mandatory finalpresentation. During these sessions faculty benefited from: guest speakers on developing courseoutcomes, teaching methods, and assessment techniques; access to a forum for faculty to discussadapting methods to their various subjects, including potential pitfalls and best practices;receiving peer and technical feedback and support for their new ideas

a course that meets two times a week). This model of distancelearning inherently presents challenges to teaching and learning. First, there is an inefficiencyof instructor time, when time is lost while traveling (the instructor devotes three hours to teacha one hour class at the distant location). A dedicated distance room is required twice per week,and such rooms are in heavy demand and often difficult to schedule at our university. Finally,there is a potential for loss of engagement in the far cohort who views class through a screen,most often in lecture format, with limited interaction with peers or the instructor. However, themost compelling reason to adopt a blended course model by the instructor in this study was theopportunity it

Anadditive innovation cycle (Figure 1) is a community-driven process wherein participants engageeach other in the following four steps: (1) becoming inspired by the local community andinstructor peers, (2) sharing and learning about pedagogical ideas and

Many of the instances of this code also served to prompt the students to think about theirideas in more depth or to explain their ideas more. For example, when students were writing thepros and cons of their different ideas in their notebooks, Mr. Reed told a team, “So, what do youmean it has the best results?”, asking them to expand further on their thoughts and justify theirideas more.

IntroductionIn recent decades, there has been a paradigm shift in engineering and science education frommore traditional passive learning (transmission of facts and knowledge from a lecturer to thestudents) to active learning (engaging with applications and learning through collaboration andcooperation with peers) [1]-[3]. Increasingly, instructors and employers are recognizing that athorough knowledge of engineering theory alone (natural sciences, mathematics, and design) isnot enough to prepare a student to be a fully competent engineer.

Over half of the class later reported that the grading systemmotivated them to pursue the correct answer more than a traditional grading system. Althoughstudents were faced with concerns over the time consumed by a long series of attempts, theacademic benefits may outweigh this stress.
