(2010), his M.S (2012). and his PhD (2014) from the University of Pittsburgh, all with a concen- tration in electric power systems. Robert’s academic focus is in education as it applies to engineering at the collegiate level. His areas of interest are in electric power systems, in particular, electric machinery and electromagnetics. Robert has worked as a mathematical modeler for Emerson Process Management, working on electric power applications for Emerson’s Ovation Embedded Simulator. Robert also served in the United States Navy as an interior communications electrician from 1998-2002 on active duty and

This pre-lectureactivity exposes students to new material and allows them to form initial conceptions,attempt problems, receive feedback, and formulate questions. By leveraging theseoutcomes, lectures can be less about direct dissemination of material and more aboutcritical discussion and engaged learning activities.Recent advances in educational software and internet-based instruction have beenexploited to develop Inverted Classrooms, including in engineering education2,3,4.

responsibilityto engineering educators, especially as methods become commercially available software in thehands of the inexperienced. Adequate understanding of design criteria does not equate withbeing able to run PC based programs. We, however, owe it to our students to introduce andmake available modern design tools. One way is to use validation methods for instruction.Historical, well-documented full scale trails (which also include after action reports) can be usedto demonstrate our design and analysis programs. The problems of structural discontinuities andsharp corners seem to recur in every design, while being well documented in 1946(20), 1964(21
