Modules will be taught in traditional lecture and flipped classroom models. 

The flipped classroom model will be applied for approximately half of the program coursework.  Here, prior to attending class, students will view a set of recorded short lectures and take quizzes on that material.  Lecture material will incorporate materials for various learning styles and take advantage of visualization opportunities readily available in this mode.  

Students will then attend classes that are led by an on-site instructor who may clarify concerns on the material.  The emphasis, however, is to lead in-class exercises that will cater to different learners through student-led exercises (problems, design projects, instructing on software, discussions, etc).  Often these sessions will be in a collaborative learning environment in which students work in small groups.  In special cases, the instructor will provide supplementary lecture material.  Out of class reading and homework assignments will then be assigned, submitted and graded.  Students also have the opportunity to engage in one-on-one instruction through office hours. 

The remainder of the coursework will be taught in a standard classroom mode of lectures with outside of class exercises, homework and projects.  In this mode, lectures will be provided during class periods. Lectures will incorporate materials different learning styles and may include example and/or student or instructor-led problem solving.  Office hours and, for some courses, problem recitations will be held to reinforce learning.  

Engineering disciplines require strong mathematics skills.  Assessments (in-class examinations, homework and individual and team projects) will focus on those skills.  In general, grades will be assigned based on performance on those assessments.
