As educators interested in increasing student learning, itseems we must be willing to take the time and energy needed to change those student behaviorsthat do not promote good learning.1.

study reinforced the importance of collaborative learning outside-the-classroom through virtual interactive environments. This active learning environment was able toimprove the flipped classroom model and added to it a new learning dimension. The hybridapproach also helped cater to all the students’ learning styles including the visual and verballearners. However, one of the main challenges in implementing this approach is the students’resistance to change especially if this change is time demanding for the students’ outside-the-classroom.Bibliography[1] National Academy of Engineers (2005), “Educating the Engineer of 2020: Adapting Engineering Education to the New Century”, National Academic of Engineering: Washington, D.C.[2] Prince
