This document outlines a flipped classroom activity on solving problems related to the Fermi-Dirac distribution function. The out-of-class activity involves students watching a 9-minute video on the topic and then answering an assessment question. In class, students will practice solving two types of problems with guidance from the instructor before solving two additional problems independently with the instructor summarizing the lesson. The goal is for students to learn and apply concepts related to the Fermi-Dirac distribution function through active problem-solving exercises.

Explain the strategy by giving details
of:
1. Students will be guided through 2 different types
of
problem solving exercises inside the classroom.
2. They will then be required to solve 2 problems
on their own.
3. Instructor will then summarize the pros and cons
of it.

Justify why the above is an active learning
strategy
The students are involved in problem solving for some
time during the class. During this time they go beyond
listening to lecture or copying the notes. They are
active and are applying whatever they learnt.
The instructor provides sufficient examples for students
to follow and explains the scope of the given method.
