party and are summarized in Appendices A and B.3. Results and DiscussionIn terms of this study NECQ and ECQ are computer based multiple-choice quizzes that often requirenumerical calculations and typically are completed in 5-10 minutes. 3.1 Extra credit quizzesIn an effort to enhance student in-class engagement, 53 graded in-class pop quizzes, were introduced intoan introductory engineering mechanics class during the 2017 spring semester. These quizzes were acombination of non-extra credit quizzes (NECQ) and extra credit quizzes ECQ. Several studentsexpressed frustration with the NECQ in terms perceived unfairness and the resulting stress pop quizzescaused them. Based on this input, during the last eight weeks of the semester quizzes were

A combination of a logical 10 moves the motor in onedirection; a combination of 01 moves the motor in the opposite direction; and a combination of00 cuts off the current to the motors (i.e. stalls the motors).B. Charging A charge controller, or charge regulator is a voltage and/or current regulator to keep batteriesfrom overcharging. It regulates the voltage and current coming from the solar panels going to thebattery. Ordinary charge controller will often work with high voltage panels if the maximuminput voltage of the charge controller is not exceeded. However, a lot of power will be lost, from20% to 60% of what your panel rating. The only way to get full power out of high voltage gridtie solar panels is to use a MPPT controller

If the operator falls into the water, they must either: (a) get back up in that location unassisted or (b) return to the start and have their team help them remount. 4. Absolutely no cardboard or paper can be used in the design of the WOW system. Be considerate and do not use any materials that could potentially cause damage to pool drains. 5. The operator must be able to swim, and we highly recommend that you wear a helmet. 6. You may not use any detached accessory to steer, propel

examples of faculty reflection making a difference in instruction because this self- reflection explicitly recognizes that the faculty are integral components of the system [6-8]. After spending some time writing down their experiences we asked the faculty to share with the small groups at their table. The conversation was animated and meaningful, and many participants came to realize how their own experiences shaped their expectation towards the students. b.

Supportingevidence was found for several of the PCFA item-specific results. At the same time, the qualitativedata did not provide very clear support of why several other items were flagged by the PCFA. Inaggregate, it is believed that this analysis generated enough insights into the items flagged by thePCFA to make targeted and evidence-based changes to some of the items of the EERI. Thesechanges and their subsequent validity assessments will be the subject of future work. References[1] Odom, P. W., and Zoltowski, C. B (2019

higher engagement and learning outcomes[8], [11], [16]–[18]. This motivates researchers to conduct studies to qualitatively and quantitativelyevaluate the effectiveness of the flipped classroom in different disciplines. The flipped classroom literaturevaries greatly in methodological rigor. However, most of the findings are consistently encouraging [11].Much of the existing research assessing the effectiveness of the flipped classroom in higher educationcontexts (a) compares a flipped course to previous, more traditional iterations [19]–[21] (b) utilizes pre-post designs assessing changes from the beginning of the flipped course to the end [22]–[24], or (c) focuseson student perceptions and satisfaction with the flipped approach [25], [26].
