Well-known benefits of the flippedclassroom format include increased peer interactions through in-class group activities [10], morefrequent and engaging faculty-student interactions[11], and flexibility that allows students tolearn at their own pace through pre-recorded lectures [12]. Naturally, flipped classrooms are agreat avenue for promoting collaborative learning [13], [14], active learning [15], and problem-based learning [16]. As a result, several studies have demonstrated enhanced studentperformance in courses offered as flipped classrooms compared to traditional lecture

Common transition initiatives include orientation programs, peer mentoring programs,common reading programs, living-learning communities, and first-year seminars [1].

a student encountering other students with diverse backgrounds, it does notguarantee a high-quality interaction. Gurin et al. [1] discuss two other forms of diversity:informal interaction diversity and classroom diversity. The former involves interaction withdiverse students outside of the classroom, and this is where most meaningful interaction happens,while the latter involves learning about diverse people and interacting with such peers in theclassroom. Informal interaction diversity and classroom diversity generate the impact oneducational outcomes, but structural diversity is required for the other two to exist.Piaget [3] states that encountering diverse students results in differing perspectives and equalityin relationships, and both

Fanon’s location of the dysfunction within the society and notthe individual is significant because he’s writing in a colonized society, and in that context anydisplay of dysfunction by the colonized people justifies their subjugation in the eyes of thecolonizers.

While a number of models exist to describe it (e.g., [47]),Lave and Wenger’s [48] Community of Practice (CoP) model has emerged as a usefulframework for understanding the engineering profession [e.g., 27, 49, 50]. This model is basedon historical apprenticeship models and the identity transformation often resulting from thisprocess. This study has adopted the CoP model to explore professional identity.

This helped prevent groups from simply "splitting" the notebook amongst themselves,defeating the point of a collaborative environment. Of the 14 sessions of this pilot course, 9 werereserved for the collaborative notebooks while the rest were dedicated to a project, where studentswould propose their own application of linear algebra and present it to their peers.

However, studies forsome of these methods point to mixed results when integrated into the main Statics course [3],[5]. Some show that the results are statistically insignificant when compared to previous lecture-based approaches, and that any improvement can be attributed to factors such as studentattendance, participation, and course satisfaction [5], [7], [8].Additionally, active learning and other innovative pedagogies have barriers which preventinstructors from embracing
