One of the primary motivations for creating andimplementing the new activities stemmed from the physical space in which the course was taught– a classroom specifically designed to encourage peer-to-peer collaboration.

Some like it and believe that it could be one of the best teachingmethods because it increases the interaction between faculty and students, and focuses onproblem solving. However some faculty and students dislike the approach because they believethat direct interactive lecturing in the traditional classroom approach is more effective. In orderto test the flipped classroom approach, we chose one chapter of engineering dynamics and triedthe flipped

semester.ConclusionAfter taking part in the group problem-solving activity, many students were able to recognizeand reflect on their assumptions related to the nature of engineering work and also the requiredskills to work on complex problems in collaborative environments and on diverse teams. Thecurrent research showed the existence of such assumptions (e.g., engineering is an individualattempt which only needs math skills to be accomplished) and at the same time the possibility ofusing interventions to debunk these assumptions. The intervention introduced and evaluated inthis paper seems promising and we encourage engineering educators to infuse activities similarto this in their curriculum.
