areas that thecapstone team and their peers had faced when taking the control systems course; namelyabstractness and continuity. As mentioned before, the architecture of the education tool features anoverarching real-world example of a system the student user is hoping to control. The real-worldexamples ultimately used in the tool are reflective of the engineering concentrations of the capstoneteam. The biomedical track used an example of controlling the glucose level within a human body;and the mechanical track used an example of controlling car speed. Figure 1.

The three learning objectives are to (1) mathematically define anddescribe general biotransport problems, including deriving governing equations and defining appropriateboundary and initial conditions (2) solve and analyze a variety of basic biotransport problems, and (3)develop transport models and approaches to biomedical problems and critically evaluate the solutions.Class activities span lower to higher order levels of Bloom’s Revised Taxonomy and require application ofmultivariable

increase in small electrical devices deployed for monitoring and othersimilar uses. When in cities or accessible areas, even if permanent connection to the electrical gridisn’t possible, battery power is a feasible alternative. However in remote locations, periodic batteryreplacement would be overly burdensome and so renewable resources are required. Vibration energyharvesting can be one such method for renewable energy in suitable environments. Common examplesof mechanisms utilized for this intent includes variable capacitance, electromagnetic induction, andpiezoelectricity [1].

Doing so required answering two fundamental questions: 1. What form of blended model would be most appropriate? 2. What is the best approach to limit students’ exposure to COVID-19 in a classroom setting?Addressing the first question required examining the three most common forms of blendedlearning models3:Flipped Classroom Model:The basis of the flipped-classroom approach is that students review lesson content away
