ability in an engineeringlaboratory. This study uses an established survey to assess the experimental self-efficacy (ESE)of students enrolled in a fourth-year chemical engineering laboratory course at the University ofVirginia. The survey measures ESE using four factors: conceptual understanding, proceduralcomplexity, laboratory hazards, and lack of sufficient resources. Results from the ESE surveysuggest that students had higher confidence in their conceptual understanding and their ability toavoid laboratory hazards. This study also analyzes students’ troubleshooting abilities using anexisting chemical reactor system (a water gas shift reaction). Students were asked to use theexperimental equipment to perform an activity. To succeed, students

CHE LabAbstractA multi-dimensional survey was created and administered to better understand the change inself-perceived and actual student abilities in a CHE laboratory course between two differentstudent cohorts. One cohort experienced a traditional lab structure with a companion face-to-facelecture course (N=47), and the other cohort included pre-lab modules integrated with in-labactivities that served as intentional scaffolding for the student learning experience (N=18). Theoverall study was motivated by the desire to understand the impact curriculum revisions have onstudent experience and abilities, with the goal to improve the educational experience usingevidence-based practices. The guiding research questions driving this facet of the

In the followingsections, we will detail our training model development as we have created lectures and practicalclass components focusing on the acquisition of teaming skills and the practice of effectiveteamwork in a Unit Operations laboratory course.

Packed bed/fluidized bed instruc-tion appears in most chemical engineering curricula, but hands-on exposure is usually relegatedto senior-level unit operations laboratories if the equipment is available at all. We have devel-oped a simple system with manometer ports for understanding pressure losses in particle beds;our system can eventually be used for safe low-low temperature catalytic processes that can bevisualized with a color change. Classroom implementation strategies, accompanying conceptual-reinforcement materials, and motivational strategies will be presented.IntroductionStudents learn in many ways.

During the first five semesters in the CHE department, the core (i.e.,pillar) CHE classes are offered in a ‘block-schedule’ which immerses the students into four one-hour fifty-minute classes each week, with the fifth one-hour fifty-minute class spent in a hands-on unit operations laboratory course.

instructors at a concentration of 5% (w/v) and cyanoacrylate was used at themanufacturer concentration. Students used these two bioadhesives to adhere leather chamois strips.Leather chamois strips were chosen because they have a rough, protein-rich surface, which couldallow for adhesion through chemical interactions or mechanical interlocking. Since we did notconduct the activity in a laboratory space, we did not include a crosslinking agent with our gelatinbioadhesive; thus, gelatin and cyanoacrylate adhered through a mechanism of mechanicalinterlocking. Prior to distributing chamois, instructors threaded them with a plastic safety tie formechanical testing. Students then marked the chamois with a horizontal line 0.5 cm from thebottom of the strip

The course has been structured as a flipped class with classtime devoted to solving problems with the numerical tools. To provide relevance for the material,an experimental component has been added to the course. In the laboratory sessions, the studentsconduct a brief experiment or activity and then analyze that process using the

Laboratories in Jacksonville, Florida, whichkilled four people and injured 32 others. The incident, which occurred on December 19, 2007, waslinked to the failure of the cooling system in the runaway chemical reaction during the productionof a gasoline additive. Following the discussion of this video, the students were assigned a take-home quiz to report on some of the common errors in the chemical plant which can impact publichealth and safety. Students reviewed the literature and generated a written report highlighting theengineer's responsibility to make informed decisions while designing solutions. The students wereexplicitly advised to discuss an engineer's socioeconomic, environmental, and culturalresponsibilities. The students were evaluated on
