The first – Electronic Instrumentation (the mainelectronics course taken by student outside of Electrical and Computer Engineering) – wastransitioned to flipped instruction in 2010 using the Mobile Studio as student-owned personalinstrumentation. The flipped environment evolved with basically the same instrumentationtoolset through the Fall of 2013, after which Analog Discovery became the platform of

After compiling andplotting the data from these survey responses, the E3 team noticed inconsistences with thequantitative data (i.e., pre- and post-program survey responses) as compared to the written (andverbal) comments (i.e., qualitative data) from the teachers. The teachers’ comments led the E3team to believe that the program had a pronounced impact on their understanding of engineering,engineering careers, and characteristics of engineers.

relativelyconstant; however, profound changes were made across all sections in terms of pedagogy,homework, timing of course content, grade computation and exam content. The motivation for focusing on Calculus I arose from a five-year National Science FoundationScience Talent Expansion Program grant that was awarded in 2010 to a multi-disciplinary teamthat spanned engineering, mathematics and science. A major grant objective was to raise first-semester, full-time retention of students in STEM majors. The projects supported several year-long faculty learning communities (FLCs) of about 10 instructors each. With significantinvolvement from mathematics faculty, the first two FLCs prepared the ground for pedagogicalreform of calculus. In 2013-14, a final FLC

Studentpreparedness may be an indicator of student persistence in higher education, since students whoenroll in remedial courses are less likely to complete their degree (NCPPHE, 2010).Scott-Clayton and Rodriguez (2015) found that while $4 billion is invested annually in courses tohelp underprepared students, little positive effect has been attributed to the effort. They proposedseveral possible reasons why efforts may have little success including that exam placement maynot be an accurate method of placement, remedial courses may not actually be addressing orfocusing on the needs of
