The inverted classroom is a teaching model, where the students prepare for classroom by watching video lectures. The classroom time is then dedicated to individual practice. We evaluated a mathematics course for electrical engineering students throughout three semesters, where 20% of the topics were taught using the inverted classroom model. The aim was to find out whether the model can help to better address groups with large differences in prior knowledge in mathematics. We report mainly positive feedback from the students, although the opinions vary greatly between the groups. The students appreciate the increased amount of practice in the classroom as well as the possibility to learn at their own pace. Exam performance remained constant in the topics taught using the inverted classroom compared to previous semesters. The exam performance of weaker students also remained constant.

One of the aims of this work is to highlight the need for connecting the practice and theoretical studies of industrial engineers. One reason for this need is the fact that students tend to graduate without proper preparation for practice, spreading thus a bad reputation of statistics and its potential, and even affecting students’ dispositions and motivation towards the study and applications of statistics. This paper presents the results of a study conducted at two higher-education institutions in Mexico. The industrial engineering students who participated were introduced to a multivariate statistics course, one in a traditional way and the other through a problem-solving approach embedded within an industrial environment. The didactic intervention in both groups and the problems used to evaluate them are described. The results show that the experimental students had a significant increase in their qualifications and alower variance in their performance. From our study we can suggest that a university education in close connection with applications in an industrial environment significantly improves the students’ education. This teaching experiment provides students with opportunities to experience the genuine character of statistics as an applied field, giving meaning to the statistical techniques learnt in the classroom. It is one way to make the education in statistics more apt to the demand from outside and by the same time it enables the students to really understand statistics.

Teachers And Students

In order to explore good teaching methods, the traditional teaching model and online teaching mode were compared and their own characteristics were analyzed. The results showed that two modes should be combined in order to better adapt to the current development of education rather than be not a single. Engineering drawing is a skill required of the basic course for engineering students. For many years, however, the blackboard, wall charts, models and other traditional teaching skills are very limited. With the rapid development of the electronics, information and communication technology, the online counseling system should be established without delay. Teachers and students, students and students can communicate well in the traditional teaching mode. Teachers can answer questions in time, however, the efficiency of class is low, and students cannot easily understand. Multimedia Network Teaching can improve teaching efficiency and enhance student interest in learning, which is important to the students’ spatial imagination. At the beginning, there are still something unsatisfactory.

Inverted Classroom

At HTW Berlin, Germany first year mechanical engineering students are taught material science as one of the fundamental courses with high work load in a blended learning environment with flipped classroom elements. Therefore peer-to-peer lecture films were established as source of theoretical background knowledge provided for self-study periods. Because the teaching method “inverted classroom” and class results directly relate to the quality of the video material one of the columns of lecture video production is the involvement of students in the lecture film production. First year students directly benefit from their fellow student learning experience, needs and perspective on teaching material. From the lecturers perspective students were generally more active and better prepared during class resulting in better grades. Practice examples introduce and evaluate both, the teaching method and videos.
