This course was theonly chemical engineering course the students took during the freshman year. While teaching the first semester sophomore Material and Energy Balance course between2009 and 2012, students often remarked that the freshman class was boring and that they still didnot understand what chemical engineers did.

; for instance, Grove & Wasserman [14] examined the trajectories of college students’ GPA,while similar studies focused on undocumented youth [14] or compared students with ADHD and theirneurotypical peers [15]. These cases, however, include little or no mention of major or concentration, andso new work is needed to study GPA in the engineering context. In engineering education, many studiesthat propose a longitudinal approach to GPA focus more on between-subjects variables or treat a singlemeasure of GPA as an outcome. For instance, Durik et al. [16] and Bernold et al. [17] both include GPAas outcome variables, but they focus on students’ two-year cumulative GPA in time-delayed analysesrather than examine GPA across multiple time points

The idea was to spread the importance of women participating in STEM to the community. 4. Sharing: With their peers organizing the event as workshop collaborators.

Itutilizes the approaches like active learning, collaborative learning, and project/problem-basedlearning, which require students to work in teams and extensively communicate with peers tocomplete assignments. While the extensive teamwork experience should create high proficiencyin student professional communication and collaboration skills, the primary focus of theassignments and the instructional support still remains on the core technical knowledge and skillsand often lacks direct instructor’s interventions with respect to the communication andcollaboration skills [14], [15].
