When his son Titus dedicated the Colosseum in 80, a year beforehe himself died, the top story was still incomplete11; however, Lanciani4 believed that by thistime, the structure had reached the fifth and topmost floor.

And solvingthe riddle of human origins appears to be the key to answering many of our biggest questions.Near the middle of the twentieth century, British scientist and novelist C. P. Snow described thedisconnect between science and the humanities in his now famous book, The Two Cultures andthe Scientific Revolution. He wrote that the intellectual life of all of western society is split intothese two cultures (science and the humanities) that have a terrible time trying to communicatewith each other, and that this is a major hindrance in solving the world’s problems.1 The tragedyhere is that humanity needs

As they develop through the Program, students have increasingly morecreative control over their projects and are responsible for component selection, design, testing,and implementation of their own hardware and/or software systems. Design constraints that areencountered in industry are followed, such as developing use models, cost, power, andportability.

In order to determine if the “flipped” course actually improved student learning, finalexam scores from the first offering were compared with the final exam scores from the fiveprevious semesters the course was taught by the instructor. For standardization, the final examconsisted of questions taken from the Fundamentals of Engineering Exam. Table 1 shows theaverage scores (out of 100) and standard deviations from the first “flipped” offering as well theprevious offerings from the instructor. As can be seen, the average score was essentiallyunchanged between the two groups going from 82.8 to 82.7. The standard deviations were alsopretty similar in both groups.
