, and, if necessary, (iv)determine a quantitative response given a system input. At each step along this process, studentswill develop and implement a variety of analytical tools. This concept map is arrangedgraphically in Figure 2.

One of the best ways to develop cross-disciplinary bridgesbetween disparate knowledge fields is through a multidisciplinary project.BackgroundThe backdrop for this
to pre-class actives, in-class activities are much more flexible. Some commonindividual activities include polling (e.g., iClickers), gaming (e.g., Kahoot), concept maps,individual problem solving, one-minute paper/reflection, and so on. Some examples of groupactivities are think-pair-share, group problem solving, in-class projects, opinion line-up, sticky-note clustering, fishbowl, cumulative brainstorming, crowdsourcing, etc.. More details of in-classactive learning activities can be found in33. In addition to the basic components and structures, knowing the advantages and challenges offlipped classroom teaching is also helpful for instructors to maximize the positive effects andreduce the negative effects on students’ learning.
