Each of these sectionswere taught in different ways: (a) traditional lecture format, (b) flipped style classroom, and (c)mixed version, which utilized videos created for the flipped classroom as supplemental materialbut delivered course content primarily through lecture style. Student-level data were collected forall three of the Statics sections of interest in this study. Data were analyzed to determine ifstudents enrolled in flipped or mixed sections experienced improved achievement outcomesgreater than their traditional-lecture peers. Initial data showed that the mixed course design hadthe greatest impact on student achievement as measured by grade distribution, DEW rates, andstudent performance on class assignments, quizzes, and

directed.Despite instructors’ aspirations, students who have mastered the procedural tasks for a givenexam – and even those who have gained a deep understanding of the relevant concepts – stillmake errors when working out answers to exam questions. Different types of exams handle thesemistakes differently. For the purpose of this paper, common math exam types are categorizedinto three groups: 1) essay, 2) multiple choice, and 3) computer assisted. These types varyprimarily along parameters of a) scoring entity and b) partial credit. Exam type is often selectedalong these parameters for practical reasons such as class size and grading time required (seeCherkas and Roitberg [2]).The possibility for exams to be used as formative assessments exists.
