42 54Evaluation Plan A psychology graduate student with expertise in quantitative analysis from the College ofEducation served as the program evaluator for this study under the guidance of Dr. ChuangWang, an education assessment expert and Professor in the College of Education at UNCCharlotte. The evaluation plan, which included both quantitative and qualitative assessmentinstrumentation, was developed to evaluate the educational impacts of flipping specific lectures.The skills, perceptions, and gains developed by student participants in a control group werecompared to the same data collected from the treatment group. While all quantitativeinstrumentation questions were identical for the control and treatment groups

Her research focuses what factors influence diverse students to choose engineering and stay in engineering through their careers and how different experiences within the practice and culture of engineering foster or hinder belongingness and identity development. Dr. Godwin graduated from Clemson University with a B.S. in Chemical Engineering and Ph.D. in Engineering and Science Education. She is the recipient of a 2014 American Society for Engineering

The students involvedin this study included 11 students (2 undergraduate seniors and nine graduate master’s students)from Southern Methodist University (SMU), a medium-sized private research university. Bothundergraduate students were enrolled in the bachelor of science program in civil andenvironmental engineering. Master's degree students were enrolled in various degree programs,including the master of science

Dr. Godwin graduated from Clemson University with a B.S. in Chemical Engineering and Ph.D. in Engineering and Science Education. Her research earned her a National Science Foundation CAREER Award focused on characterizing latent diversity, which includes diverse attitudes, mindsets, and approaches to learning, to understand engineering students’ identity devel- opment.
