Hence, thevariety of technical background of the students taking the course leads to wide range ofexpectations of the course by students. Furthermore, this IE course will be the only directexposure to probability in some students’ coursework, while others will rely on it to preparethem for more advanced coursework on these topics (e.g., design of experiments, simulation,stochastic processes). Hence, it must serve both as a terminal course that prepares students fortheir careers after graduation, as well as an introductory course that provides a foundation forfuture academic study including related sequenced courses in other engineering

“theflipped classroom format can encourage skills that are useful for students’ future careers, such asself-regulation and life-long learning2”.The flipped classroom changed the teaching strategies from instructor-centered instruction to onethat is student-centered where students are responsible for their own learning. Just like every kidis different, every student learns differently. Students can learn at their own pace with the flippedclassroom but must submit assignments on time. This method may flip students from passivelearners to active learners thereby increasing student engagement.In traditional face-to-face classrooms, an instructor gives a lecture, teaches students aboutconcepts and theorems, and explains examples.

This hasbeen a great opportunity to help the students make progress with their engineering skills, and towitness their development over their entire college career. Up until capstone design, the studentsusually solve clearly defined technical problems while selecting appropriate mathematicalrelationships. In contrast, design requires the students to use different skills, which rely muchmore on practical knowledge – which is why an effort was made to distribute students
