The Kit allows the students to test theconcepts taught in class on real hardware immediately. It facilitates hands-on assignment wherethe students assemble modular hardware components and modify program binaries to achieve thedesired goals.

This is based on the fact thatabstract concepts are better learned when there is another concept to which it can be compared.In this study it was found that complex concepts and the manner in which they were taught wasmostly conceptual with very little to no real life application. The manner in which students areexposed to the concept of electricity in the classroom does not match the actual workingenvironment they will be operating in. Consequently, engineering learning environments shoulddo a better job of preparing students for the workforce and as such there is a need to includemore application type activities. In

The other three engineeringdisciplines within Tuskegee's College of Engineering, Architecture and Physical Sciences (i.e.,Aerospace, Electrical and Mechanical) all have a computer programming requirement similar tothat of the chemical engineering department. It would be infeasible for the chemical engineeringdepartment to unilaterally drop the computer science requirement. Therefore the review teamdecided not to recommend the switch to a mathematical toolkit approach. Such an approachremains an option, however, and the chemical engineering department will continue to reviewthe curriculum as

Page 24.1160.2IntroductionFor a number of years now, engineering instructors throughout the world have begun toexperiment with the notion of a “flipped” or “inverted” classroom. This teaching approachencourages students to gain the required base knowledge of a concept prior to class through short“mini-lecture” videos or other preparatory exercises. The great potential for this approach is thatit provides instructors with the opportunity to reimagine and redesign the in-class experience tocreate a more active learning environment.Recently, this approach was applied to the teaching of an electric and magnetic fields course aspart of the second-year electrical and computer engineering curriculum at the University ofToronto, which is a large
