In addition to generating and grading textbook-style homework problems, itprovides interactive simulations of laboratory experiments, and it administers surveys, pre- andpost-tests, and quizzes for training on laboratory equipment. The system randomizes the numbersand units in homework problems and allows multiple attempts, which discourages cheating,removes the burden of manual grading for instructors, and provides students with instantaneousfeedback. Students complete assignments using simulated laboratory experiments, which modelcorresponding hands-on projects that they will later work on in class. This is done to familiarizestudents with the project and core chemical engineering theory ahead of time, saving labresources and time and

, students often lack the background and are not provided with the necessaryguidance for using expert prototyping techniques to maximize project outcomes6,7. Today’sengineering design curricula commonly view prototyping as a phase, a singular activity thatoccurs only once after performing engineering analysis8. This limited use may contribute tostudents' underutilization of prototypes. As a result, students may be missing out on the greaterpotential of prototypes that professional designers benefit from9,10. This untapped potentialcannot only have a negative impact on the creation of new products and services; it can also limithow universities prepare students for professional careers and competitiveness in today’seconomy.An increased focus on
