opportunities for students to learn through theexperiences within the contextualized team or problem-based learning environment.Additionally, the emergence of the flipped classroom has provided another strategy to assist inlearning approaches that require both knowledge and skill development. Researchers debate on aunified definition of the flipped classroom. For the purposes of this discussion, a flippedclassroom is defined as having activities that might traditionally take place in the classroommoved outside the classroom through the use of technology, in the form of online learning [5].Problem-based learning/cooperative learning approaches combined with a flipped classroomstructure allows an engineering educator to provide knowledge exchange around
without consideration of existing course content [1].In the second phase of the project, the team reviewed existing courses. The goal of thisundertaking was to review how and when specific knowledge, skills, and abilities are developedand delivered as students currently progress through the program, and to identify gaps betweenexisting and desired program outcomes [1]. A key take-away from the review process ishighlighted below (emphasis added): “The exercise of intentionally reviewing course and program outcomes provided us insight into the program that did not previously exist. We learned, perhaps for the first time, what topics our colleagues are covering in their courses, what approaches and techniques they use in the classroom, and

answers to a statics concept question. These responses were examined,sorted into helpful and unhelpful reasoning patterns, and coded into themes. To more deeplyexplore student reasoning patterns, we use a think aloud protocol to study how students addressthis same friction problem with multiple solution paths, and how they assess their own thinking.Specifically, we ask:1. What patterns emerge in student approaches to the problem?2. How do different student approaches interact with their assessment of their thinking?Previous WorkConcept questions provide one avenue for educators to engage in student-centered pedagogywhere the students influence the content, materials, and pace of learning by providing facultyfeedback on current

and lowerdivision courses through vertical integration and PBL. This framework leverages problem-basedlearning to support in-class student engagement and retention in science, technology, engineeringand mathematics (STEM) fields. Vertical integration supports out-of-classroom engagement,which in turn serves student retention in engineering. The utilized “vehicle” for verticalintegration is course projects, which lend themselves nicely to PBL. This framework willultimately be transferable among different course types, educational levels, and universities.Specific aspects of this framework will be provided to successfully implement this verticallyintegrated PBL framework in another setting.
