understanding. This paper will present the development, structure and lessons learned during the establishment of a blended flipped classroom for engineering students at the undergraduate level. A range of topics including software used for video development to evaluation and assessment techniques is discussed. Problem solving is a critical component of engineering education; an engineering student must be able to apply the knowledge gained from a lecture. However, duration of student contact in the classroom is constrained by credit hours. For many students, graded homework assignments and exams are the only experiences they have in solving complex engineering problems. Virtual lectures provide students the opportunity to apply their

complained that additional lab discussion on the machine, tooling,material, and inspection issues that affect part quality were irrelevant and thus a waste of time.After recognizing that the existing lab deliverables overly-emphasized part production tasks of amachinist or operator, lab assignments were modified to be framed as engineering team scenarioswhich required the production of a part, but for the purpose of testing, development ofengineering recommendations, and other reporting. Additional modifications to the courseincluded two new lab part designs that were real and useful take-home items, the reduction ofinitial course time spent on measurement instruments, and shifting of some lab demonstrationcontent to pre-existing video

. MCNP5/X can be used to model various nuclear engineering scenarios to include fundamental nuclear and atomic interactions, particle/photon transport, radiation shielding and detection, and nuclear reactor analysis. In the NE field, MCNP5/X is well respected and reliable, and its results offer excellent visualization for modeled scenarios. At West Point, the faculty uses a cognitive apprentice model to implement student use of MCNP5/X over a two-year period of studies. This is a three-phase developmental model that starts gradually with (1) faculty demonstrations and then with (2) student coaching in the laboratory context during the first year of the NE curriculum
