driven by inductive learning and inquiry.The idea of a learning cycle employed here is a cycle in which the student engages with a formof instruction, performs a related exercise, receives feedback and/or evaluation, and repeats theexercise or a similar one. This includes, but is not limited to, the examples or theories citedabove. For example, learning cycles could be planned and implemented even with deductivelesson styles. Discussion of the relative merits of the forms of pedagogy that best amplifystudent learning is beyond the scope of this article, but the authors consider themselves to bepractitioners of “active learning” strategies. In this article, learning cycles are defined within theuse of an overall Mastery Based Learning3 approach

’ troubleshooting skills, our faculty group converged unanimously on thehypothesis that longer-term interventions may yield deeper and more lasting impact byreinforcing a consistent framework (e.g. the approach of determining the key questions to askand actions to take that yield key information about the faulty system) for approachingtroubleshooting tasks as well as to diversify the students’ experiences in applyingtroubleshooting skills thus helping them to become more adept. Moreover, we decided to takethe approach of developing new exercises for students to investigate fault scenarios as a fairlyeasy way for instructors to support this initiative in their various lab sections. Finally, theoutcomes of these interventions can be measured at the end of

problem, the authors studied and leveraged what theyconsidered to be the benefits of three major pedagogies, and apply them within the constraints ofthe program. The first pedagogy was that of ‘flipping the classroom’ which has become popularwithin the educational community. In this pedagogical methodology, class work is done at homeand homework is done in the class. This resurgence is due in large part to the popularity andsuccess of online instructional videos by Salman Khan, the founder of the Khan Academy. In theKhan Academy model, students are required to watch video lectures independently and completeexercises to evaluate the students’ understanding of the topic. Once the student achieves masteryof a topic, he or she moves on to the next
