material based upon previous knowledge that they may have.To measure student learning, pre- and post- Materials Concept Inventory (MCI) exams wereadministered. The MCI is a 30-minute, multiple choice exam that is available on-line and measuresstudents’ conceptual knowledge and reasoning. A sample MCI question regarding electrical conductivitybetween aluminum and glass is as follows: Aluminum is a better electrical conductor than is glass becausealuminum: a) has more total electrons per volume b) has more conducting electrons per volume c) haselectrons which move faster d) has electrons which move slower e) has more conducting electrons pervolume and they move faster than those in glass. The topics in the MCI exams are as listed in Table 3

At this point in the discussion, manymainstream faculty metaphorically throw their hands up and say, “I do not have the time tochange everything, including all of my teaching and testing methods.” We claim that eachprofessor does not have to re-invent the wheel. In fact, by a limited literature search many topicsnow have active learning templates that are easy to follow and integrate.Two diverse student populations from two geographically distant campuses were surveyed.Faculty from two different universities, a mid-size HBCU population, University A and a largestate school, University B, implemented the following three easy-to-employ active learningtechniques: 1) Process Oriented class worksheets, 2) Concept-in-Context

In contrast, no on-campus students finished in the D/F/W range and over 80% finishedin the ‘A’ or ‘B’ ranges. With the exception of the semester project, the average grade forcampus students was higher in each of the grading categories than for distance students(homework, exams, final exam).
