This paper describes the implementation of the “YOU DRIVE” approach, designed to increase the active learning of college students in operations management and data analysis courses.  After watching the professor perform a concept and approach, students work on a problem during class, under observation from each other and the professor.  This approach allows students to immediately gain feedback, make mistakes, learn from each other, and apply concepts after seeing them. This approach also enables the professor to learn individual students more personally, to include understanding individual strengths and weaknesses with the respective course material. This paper describes the ongoing evolution of the “You Drive” approach over three semesters and two different courses.  This paper will provide a review of active learning theory and approaches, and will describe feedback and observations gained over three semesters, the latter of which is in progress.  This paper will also describe changes and improvements based on the various feedback, and will outline a plan for future research.
