society. Why will a Practitioner find utility in this approach? Most of the engineering education practitioners use natural sciences and deductivemethods both in their research as well as in their teaching meaning that they need toobserve and present their findings in a logical and bias-free context5, 61, 14. This applies toboth the classroom as well as the laboratory. There is very little, or no space at all, forresearcher-based personal, inductive or intuitive interpretation 36, 61. Conversationalstorytelling and the SBL method become engaging only when it is storyteller-based.Meaning both the teacher and the student.

The professor,who was experienced teaching the course, had become concerned about the level of learning andperceived lack of engagement on the part of the students. The flipped class method seemed to bea possible solution, since it had given indications of better understanding of course material.5Because this was a senior level class, the professor recognized that when the students graduatedin a few months, they would need to be able to take initiative and have knowledge to apply totheir heat

The senior-level course is a new course that I had developed, the one I teach in spring, and that was based on my interests -- started out as just materials, and gradually evolved toward the role of materials in construction and constructability, and so the senior course I teach is on reinforced concrete construction, and we talk about constructability issues, not just how

EngineeringIntroductionGraduate student instructors are essential to the teaching team at many research institutions.They often lead laboratories, discussion sessions, and/or hold office hours; and are the primaryliaison between students and faculty. As such, they not only influence student learning, but theycan also be agents of change and improve student retention [1]. Therefore, the training of studentinstructors is critical to enhancing the student experience as well as the classroom climate.Additionally, meaningful assessment of student instructor professional development is criticalfor ensuring quality of such training.To support their key role in the teaching-learning environment, the College of Engineering (CoE)at the University of Michigan requires training of
