that this phenomenon reflected that students involved in project-based learning activities were more inclined to regard themselves as a part of the engineeringcommunity.The students in Motamedi’s study [19] tended to prefer the flipped classroom because of itsflexibility with their schedules, their ability to watch lectures when they felt motivated tolearn and when they knew that they would be able to stay focused, and their increasedengagement with short video content. A significant disadvantage was their inability to askquestions while learning the material; thus, students would go to class feeling confused andill-prepared. Vidic et al.’s [18] study of flipped classrooms addressed this issue by allowingstudents to post their questions about

technology must practically considerprerequisites in mathematics for the students so that any new prerequisites other than the onesalready required by the electrical engineering technology program.It becomes necessary for the instructors to carefully assess each topic covered in the course andimplement a teaching strategy that only utilizes the practical level of math and physics. Thepracticality must come from the understanding of how the topic is being utilized and practiced inthe field to avoid any unnecessary complexity. Running a pilot course before the final courseimplementation can help assess and adjust to the proper level of prerequisites. For example, withtwo-port S-parameters, it is more important to understand the physical meanings of

rigorous standards for the students’ future studies. With these high expectations, studentsoften struggle due to the fact they are not only learning engineering concepts for the first time, butthey are also learning how to learn.As educators, it is our imperative duty to find instructional methods that best deliver not onlyrequisite information to students, but in a manner that is also conducive to critical thinking. Anincreasing number of studies suggest that the use of traditional textbooks may not be the mostefficient or cost-effective means of education. To the latter point, multiple studies have beenconducted on textbook prices for over five decades. Textbook prices have increased 1,000% fromthe late 1970’s to the mid-2010’s. Throughout the

first speaker chosen was a professor and department head for an engineering departmentlocated at a university in the United Kingdom. The presentation focused on their development ofan interdisciplinary engineering program that serves as something of an extended first-yearengineering program, providing problem- and project-based work for students in their first twoyears of school before they matriculate into a traditional engineering discipline. The follow-upbook purchased for attendees who wanted a copy was Wenger-Trayner et al.’s “Learning inLandscapes of Practice” [6].The second speaker was an associate professor within a department of engineering education at auniversity within the United States.
