Sumario:[EN] Critical thinking and self-directed learning are corner stones to prepare first year mechanical engineering students for the demands of the employment market. Creating a positive learning environment presupposes solutions to mechanical engineering problems related to material science. The blended learning environment embedds inverted classroom teaching scenarios as the opportunity to gain higher learning outcome and self-reliant study skills. Inverting the classroom is a method to let the students study the basic scientific background of engineering materials on their own and then work practically during face-to-face time. Because during digital self-study periods (especially during the Covid-19 pandemic) students often feel lonely lighboard videos were provided in addition to traditional lecture material. Short lightboard videos (<10 min) are produced easily on student demand on a glass panel (learning glass). Here, the lecturer always keeps eye contact with the audience and students feel addressed in person. As students were able to manage the input the learning outcome is directly related to the teaching material.
