Design Experiences for Future Engineers in Chemistry Laboratory AbstractOur approach to general chemistry laboratory for engineers in our NSF-funded IUSE project(DUE-1625378) involves the use of design challenges (DCs), an innovation that uses authenticcontext and practice to transform traditional tasks. These challenges are scaled-down engineeringproblems related to the NAE Grand Challenges that engage students in collaborative, team-basedproblem solving via the modeling process. With features aligned with professional engineeringpractice, DCs are hypothesized to support student motivation for the task as well as for theprofession. As an evaluation of our curriculum design, we use Expectancy Value

Meaningful and consequential learningOur focus of curriculum reform has been towards shifting activity to meaningful, consequentiallearning in activity-based studio and laboratory courses to better prepare students to connect theknowledge they are learning in school to the messy, open-ended work they will encounter aspracticing engineers (NAE, 2020). Meaningful, consequential learning centers on work thatpositions students on teams in the role of engineers where they need to identify core foundationalprinciples as conceptual tools to progress (Johri & Olds, 2011).

-worldconfirmation of the theory and concepts from lecture classes. All too often, however,undergraduate laboratory classes fall short of enhanced learning and are instead more notable forstudent dissatisfaction and/or frustration [1], [2], [3]. There are several reasons for this problem.First, organized laboratory classes are often used to meet numerous student outcomes such asthose comprising ABET student outcomes (1) – (7) [4]. Second, organized laboratory classes areoften taught separately from theory classes, leading to a disconnect from pre-requisite coursesand uneven understanding among the student cohort. Third, organized lab classes often involveteamwork, without specific instruction or guidance on how to work effectively, how to divide uptasks
