Abstract

A staggering amount of STEM prospects will not complete introductory courses. This is in part due to outdated lecturing styles with little to no influence on student comprehension. The purpose of this quasi-experimental study is to investigate student achievement in a flipped class environment. Participants are calculus II students in a flipped or a non-flipped classroom who volunteered test scores to be analyzed and compared. After analyzing the data there proved to be no significant difference in test achievement however there was a significant difference in final grade distribution.
