From Electrons to Neutrons – Blended Engineering Education Marie-Pierre Huguet1, Tom Haley2, and Sehnaz Baltaci-Goktalay3AbstractBlended instruction, a combination of face-to-face and online instruction, is a powerful instructional mode.Its power lies in the significant transfer of responsibility for learning from the instructor to the student. Thisrepresents a significant culture change for students especially for the “typical” engineering student. In thispaper we share the process we followed to redesign Nuclear Phenomena for Engineering Applications(NPEA) to allow for a blended approach. We illustrate the instructional decisions that were made, theirimplementation, and the students’ overwhelmingly positive
