Indeed, this aspect of traditional lecturing, one person declaimingat hopefully engaged but oftentimes bored students, is what has engendered much of thecriticism heard from students and education researchers and has driven the creation

students’ educational learningexperience. Our student survey in 20115 indicated that almost all students had access to the digitaltextbook solution manuals. Until early 2000s, the weight of homework assignments on the finalgrades was as high as 30%. With the knowledge of student access to the solution manual the weightof homework assignments on the final grades was reduce 0-10%. With lower weight, less studentsattempt homework assignments. In an attempt to resolve this problem, we started to create our ownproblems and assign them to students as additional assignments5.6. Initially, this approach seemedto be a helpful solution to force students to solve homework assignments on their own. However,this solution did not last long. Now there are a
