Technology plays a vital role in Engineering Education as today's students are 21st century learners and they have close affinity with technology. The main motivation of this paper is to incorporate student engagement techniques such as blended learning and flipped classroom using technology and assessing the students understanding while teaching courses in Electronics&communication engineering and program. Teaching courses using Chalk and Board method are less effective because there is no way to know whether the students are listening to the class and understanding the course. The paper describes the use of EDMODO platform to blend learning where students and teacher can have online discussion. Teacher can upload the video or document and post the assignments and see the graph of student progress. To flip the class by recording power point slides and recording desktop screen. These tools are helpful for students in understanding theory as well as practicals. The result of students understanding is also presented in this paper from which a teacher can know the students' needs to improve in which part of the course.
