increased momentum. “Blended-learning systems combine face-to-face instruction with computer-mediated instructions” (Graham, 2005). As Shibley(2010) pointed out, “A blended course involves a mixture of face-to-face activities withonline activities,” and “Usually face-to-face time is reduced by 50% but reductions rangefrom 10% - 90%” (Shibley, 2010). One of the major advantages of blended-learning isto maximize student mobility in a vibrant technology and socio-economic environment.For traditional classroom teaching, there were abundant research studies revealing thatthe classroom attendance had a positive impact on academic performance. However,there have been less explorations of the correlation between online attendance andstudent learning

specifically designed to facilitate knowledge inte-gration. This curriculum, in use for just over 5 years, is unique for its use of block scheduling.Block scheduling, in its simplest form, is transforming multi-semester courses into a single-semester course via extended, concentrated contact time. Among other things, the flexibilityafforded by extended and more frequent contact time allows (and encourages) greater opportu-nity for active and collaborative learning. The specific adaption of this technique to chemicalengineering has resulted in a curriculum comprised of 6 “Pillar” courses which are takenindividually in 6 consecutive undergraduate semesters and are accompanied by vertically in-tegrated laboratory experiences.IntroductionIn this paper, we

difficult challenge. A key questionhas been the size or number of units of the proposed course as the course had to fit into eachdepartment’s existing curriculum. Because the ABET accreditation criteria for engineeringprograms 1 requires that every student be able to function on multi-disciplinary teams, a largeenrollment default course was needed. A five unit studio laboratory during a single quarter wasultimately chosen for the new course. The change and approval process was easiest for ARCHbecause it fit within their existing curriculum structure, no curriculum changes or faculty votewere required.
