The observations presented in this paper indicate that on average,students watched a little more than half of the recorded lecture content that they were expectedto. Viewing rates steadily decreased throughout the semester, but were not affected by videolength or day of week. Female students were found to exhibit significantly higher viewing ratesthan their male counterparts. Effectively, no correlation was observed between viewership ratesand course performance as measured by final course grades.Introduction/Course StructureIn the College of Engineering at Villanova University, several courses have been transitioned toan inverted format over the

This represented data from 84 of the 94initially registered for the sophomore design course, and from 130 of the 136, for thesenior design course. The grade point average and SAT score data were self reported (seeFig. 1) and were not verified. (An attempt was made to verify gpa and SAT scores, butthe University’s policies and a lack of good record keeping rendered this attemptunsuccessful.) The SAT data were approximately 70% complete.
