and creativeoutcomes for students participating in an engineering summer camp at a major researchinstitution. The case has been made for an increased emphasis on creativity in technologyand engineering education yet, a perceived inability to assess creativity in students’ workcoupled with a lack of research in this area has prevented the inculcation of instructionalstrategies promoting creativity in STEM classrooms. In order to identify instructionalstrategies that help promote creativity in design, it is important to examine therelationship between students’ creative self-efficacy and their creative outcomes asmeasured by the Consensual Assessment Technique (CAT).

A 3-D simulation is required due to the close geometry of the axial andthrust arrays. The initial axial 3-D simulations show a good correlation to simpler 2-Dsimulations. These results confirmed the viability of using off-the-shelf permanent magnets and3-D printed parts.

c American Society for Engineering Education, 2015 Resources for Flipping Classes AbstractAs flipped classes become more popular, opportunities for sharing resources andtechniques arise. Instructors can learn from the experience of others, and they can alsoborrow materials and approaches that others have used. But the design space is verylarge, and simple web searches usually fail to retrieve the most relevant materials. Thispaper aims to serve as a guide to what is currently available in three areas: sites devotedto the pedagogy of “flipping,” sources for reusable materials such as videos, andtechniques other than lecturing that can be used during a class
