Lape is an Associate Professor of Engineering at Harvey Mudd College. Her previous re- search in engineering education examined the effectiveness of flipped classrooms as compared to more ”traditional” active learning in a controlled study. In addition to educational research, she also runs un- dergraduate research programs in gas separation membranes and
engineering, K-12 engineering, and engineering curriculum development.Dr. Marisa K. Orr, Clemson University Marisa K. Orr is an Assistant Professor in Engineering and Science Education with a joint appointment in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Clemson University. Her research interests include student persistence and pathways in engineering, gender equity, diversity, and academic policy. Dr. Orr is a recipient of the NSF CAREER Award for her research entitled, ”Empowering Students to be Adaptive Decision-Makers.” c American Society for Engineering Education, 2018 The WISER Experience: Perceived Supports Embedded in a Living-Learning
