An increasingly popular course structure, the flippedclassroom, aims to maximize the amount of in-class time dedicated to active learning. It is notedthat the flipped classroom is also known as an inverted classroom1-2, an inside-out

The flattest curve is for sophomore classes and might be due to the fact that thesubject textbooks for sophomores are more standard and therefore further developed than thespecialized senior courses. The other item of note is that the freshmen have the most linearrelationship between grades and attendance.Figure 4 is a plot of student grade vs. attendance for math intensive courses broken down byclass standing.

Recently, the development of Internet technologiesfostered the spread of online laboratories, and significant benefits helped establish remoteexperimentation as a potential substitute to real experimentation. Internetworking labexperiments usually involve very expensive hardware; and providing remote access to this typeof laboratories is highly desired, especially when a large number of students must share a limitedset of devices. Very few remote internetworking laboratories have previously been implemented,and they had several drawbacks.

There are many classic historical cases, butcontemporary cases allow students to easily place themselves in the situation and claim a senseof ownership. Students may already know the basic facts of some real, contemporary ethicalcases, which are in abundant supply.

Students involved in the program help solicit projects from the surroundingcommunity for development and prototyping in the senior design course, ME 450.

The idea thatstudents can learn at different levels is a driving force in how educators develop and constructtheir lessons. We know that students can learn at a lower level where all they are able to do isrecognize the material; at a higher level they can repeat back what they have learned but at thehighest levels they are able to synthesize their knowledge to analyze and draw conclusions. Weall aspire to help students to reach the highest level which of course requires the greatestunderstanding of the topics and ideas.As a simplification in teaching engineering technology the six levels can be
