Engineering is really a mixture of art and science --- perhaps, teaching the “science” or more factual-oriented portion is better done using Smart Class Teaching, and the “art” or creative-oriented portion is better done using Black Board Teaching. However, it is critical that a professor be very comfortable with the material and periphery subjects if Black Board Teaching is used since the discussion may shift across multiple subject areas in order to reach the teaching objectives. --- Milad Alhir

Inverse Function: A Visual and Intuitive Approach Daniel Raviv College of Engineering and Computer Science, Florida Atlantic University Emails: ravivd@fau.eduAbstract Students in today's generation learn differently: they rely less on textbooks and more onweb-based explanations including short videos and animations. They repeatedly miss the “Aha!Moment” and ask for more experiential, visual, intuitive, tech-based, and easy-to-comprehendinformation.
