Reality Processing Plant for Chemical Engineering Process DesignAbstractThis work-in-progress study will explore technology aided education in the form of a VirtualReality (VR) application used to support learning outcomes in a chemical engineering capstonecourse. VR has the ability to immerse users in a simulated environment and provide them withexperiential learning opportunities. Most undergraduate chemical engineering students arerequired to design a chemical plant for their capstone design project without ever having visitedor interacted with a full-scale processing plant and could benefit from the immersive experiencethat the VR tool would offer. This study will be conducted over a two-year period fromSeptember 2019 to May 2021

decided to use an MSP432 MCU. Each course studiesabout different perspectives and different levels of the MSP432 MCU. In embedded system trackcourses, it has been organized to deliver effective education and consistent education over themultiple courses. After taking the courses in the embedded system integration track, studentstake Capstone project courses. Students can choose their own microprocessor/microcontrollermodel according to the project requirements. They may choose one of the SimpleLink MCUs,and they can reuse the code of what they have learned previously. In this paper, an embeddedsystem track that uses a common MSP432 MCU was presented and the assessment was shownand discussed. The positive feedback was demonstrated through the

, e.g., capstone projects.However, students would benefit from, and are interested in, integrating holistic educationthroughout the curriculum. Moreover, university engineering programs that are accredited byABET are required to meet these objectives. In their recent redevelopment of the student outcomescriteria, ABET [1], [2] identified seven primary outcomes for students. Of these, items two andfour focus on holistic engineering, emphasizing global cultural, social, environmental, andeconomic factors.To address all of the critical aspects of engineering projects, students must successfully analyze therequirements, synthesize information, and evaluate several design options for a given problem.These cognitive skills match well with Bloom’s

/database/network courses and capstone project courses. In RPGs,experience points (XP) are used to quantify a player’s (or character’s) progression through thegame. XP can be implemented in different ways. Level-based progression XP are widely applied:Players win enough XP as rewards to reach next higher level 27 . Players in the next level will haveincreased ability. We want to design level-based XP to reflect students’ progress through theircourses. However, we want to avoid associating XP directly with performance-based criteria suchas students’ assignment scores, since this may cause unexpected negative effects. A suite ofindicators that assess students’ progress and effort based on their submissions 8 are a possiblecandidate measure for XP
