We also compared the results to those of other flipped classrooms in ourschool of engineering, which have been implemented as part of our school-wide initiative to flipengineering courses.1. Introduction and Literature ReviewOngoing research in engineering education suggests that teachers who aim to achieve increasedstudent learning should adopt active learning approaches. Students who are taught in the “activelearning” environment are likely to demonstrate higher academic achievement, better high-levelreasoning and critical thinking skills, deeper understanding of learned material, greatermotivation to learn and achieve, more positive and supportive relationships with

Besides technicalroles, engineers now have to fulfill project management and team leadership roles to complywith the now complex and multidisciplinary culture in the workplace. Engineering education hasevolved in the last decades with the intent of fulfilling this demand of teamwork skills ingraduates. Among the five major breakthroughs in engineering education discussed by Froyd et [1]al. are the outcomes-based accreditation guidelines introduced by ABET (Accreditation Boardof Engineering and Technology)in the late 1990s, a major emphasis on design, a greaterapplication of education, learning

NGSS explains, “This integration is achieved by raising engineeringdesign to the same level as scientific inquiry in classroom instruction when teaching sciencedisciplines at all levels and by giving core ideas of engineering and technology the same status asthose in other major science disciplines” (NGSS, Appendix A).

As such, an introduction to robotics in the context of manufac-turing is becoming more important for students pursuing degrees in Manufacturing Engineering.There is, however, always a challenge when teaching robotics to find the correct balance betweenapplication and modeling. Many robotics courses taught in Electrical or Mechanical EngineeringDepartments have a tendency to emphasize modeling over application, but a well-prepared Man-ufacturing Engineer needs to

Indeed, it is often only on looking back “after thingsturned out nasty” that reasoning seemingly unrelated to ethics may be identified as ethical.1 Likewise, students may not recognize that engineering design is inherently tied to ethics.However, the products of an engineering design process, and especially the use of thoseproducts, undoubtedly are.1 Scholars have argued that ethical issues arise on a day-to-day basisin the
