year.Failure rates. The first is a comparison of failure rates between a traditional pair of sections of357 taught by Dr. Staley in S '12, vs the high-efficiency sections he taught in F'12-F'13. 357 is anotoriously difficult class, and the mastery model makes it even harder. The failure rate in thetraditional sections was 30%, which is not rare for difficult CS courses. Average failure rates forthe 4 terms (14 sections) thus far taught under the inverted model were 25%. These data mayonly be taken as rough indications, as the inverted model used somewhat less challengingprojects than the in-person S'12 course, and the mastery model that was introduced in S'12tended to produce a small but significant body of repeat failing students in the following

During the 1920’s theSociety for the Promotion of Engineering Education developed the landmark study6,"Report of the Investigation of Engineering Education, 1923-1929", that has been popularlyreferred to as the Wickenden Report. Interestingly enough, over 80 years ago they werediscussing “the question of a longer engineering curriculum” along with programs, standards andfacilities required. We have come a long way since the late 1920’s and today are contemplating

The in-person meeting is devotedto answering questions (that students may have based on their viewing of the corresponding videolecture(s)), joint problem solving activities, as well as other active learning tasks that provide in-dividual and group practice. The expectation is that, given the ability of active learning tasks toengage students in learning, the approach will help students better achieve the intended learningoutcomes of the course; and, as an added bonus, students’ abilities with respect to such importantprofessional skills as team work and

When a team found a dirty area, members were to ask themselves: how can weprevent this from getting dirty again?

2005, the number of awarded engineering degrees that includedonline components had not significantly increased. They noted a distinct misconception thatonline education in engineering has to be self-paced without clear instructor guidance and littlecollaboration. With the technology available today, that is not the case. The authors also notedno significant differences have been found between online and on-campus students from 1992-2002 as reported by Moore in 2002 in the Journal of Asynchronous Learning Networks. Bourneet al.’s key point is the pedagogy must be examined and evaluated. If this is done properly, thenonline engineering education is possible because the addition of synchronous time in a coursepermits nearly the same level of

However, the currentlymost popular electric vehicle, the Tesla Model S, still has a structure similar to that of aconventional vehicle. This design cannot fully utilize the potential of an electric vehicle. Instead,it makes the vehicle even more complex by adding electric modules onto a mechanical systemwhile minimally reducing the number of mechanical components.
