Summary:The flipped classroom approach is being used in many engineering courses. This paper describes an approach used for flipping a large Signals & Systems class. The structure of the out-of-class and inclass materials is described with comments about what issues are felt to be important. Student survey results are presented that help determine how students respond to the flipped approach as well as what factors they feel are important. Grade analysis results show significant gains on problem-based exams but no gain on conceptual-based exams.
