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

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.

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

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.

Although a number of models have been developed in this topic by many academics,developing “critical thinking skills” can be a long and arduous process. In particular, thedevelopment of higher education program level critical thinking skills require detailed courselevel planning, structured assignments, critical analysis of case studies, student centric learning,and guided design using tools such as simulation and gaming, communication exercises, andlaboratory experiments.

(PSS-14), developed by Cohen et al. [17], was used for assessing an individual’s perceived stress levels. It comprises 14 items that evaluate the extent to which an individual perceives life as stressful over the past month (e.g., “how often have you been upset because of something that happened unexpectedly?”). Each item is rated on a 5-point Likert scale, ranging from 0 (never) to 4 (very often). The sum of the item scores reflects an individual's level of perceived stress, with higher scores indicating higher levels of stress. Table 3 provides a concise explanation of how to interpret the scores obtained from the PSS-14. © American Society for Engineering Education, 2023
