pre-recorded lectures. To enhance this concept,a hybrid approach to the traditional lecture was applied. In this approach, students are exposed toboth on-line and face-to-face lecture methods. In addition, this approach included a short onlinequiz through BlackboardTM before each course module and a short quiz at the start of classsession after each course module to improve student participation. In fact, a 2010 U.S.Department of Education report1 concluded that “Instruction combining online and face-to-faceelements had a larger advantage relative to purely face-to-face instruction than did purely onlineinstruction”. However this report targeted very broad population including K-12, careertechnology, medical and higher education, as well as

They soon provedto be one of the most simple, the most insightful, and the most popular instruments that studentsuse in an AC power laboratory at this university. Their primary focus in this Energy Systems IIlab is for the synchronization between an AC generator and the local power grid. When federallegislation made their incandescent light bulbs obsolete in 2014, a replacement instrument designbecame necessary.

Transfer students and continuing students were not included inthis study. The data were collected from the university’s student information system andincluded their major in Fall 2010, the mathematics course they took that semester, their finalgrade in that course, gender, race, and declared major one year later. Students were consideredretained if their major was still in an engineering discipline at the end of their third semester (oneyear after they completed their first semester at the university).

He started his research career ap- plying fairly deep mathematical ideas to gain insight into how complex physical and engineering systems work. His work was theoretical and somewhat abstract. Since then, his research has evolved toward studying a different type of complex system: how students learn and become excited about engineering. In this endeavor, Dr. Coller is mostly a ”nuts & bolts” practitioner, an engineer, and an experimentalist
