led to multimediacourse resources supplanting paper books for some engineering courses. Additionally, very littleinformation is available to answer a fundamental question about a textbook’s utility or necessity,namely how many students read their textbooks for engineering courses or any college course?Over more than four decades research shows a majority of students ignore textbook reading [1-6].For example, one study used pop quizzes to measure reading compliance and observed decreasefrom 80% in the early 1980s to about 20% between 1993 and 1997, which precedes the availabilityof handheld electronic devices [5].

These experiences also empower students by helping them recognize how thisknowledge can be applied to develop new products and technologies that benefit society. Thispresentation describes our efforts to address this need by creating innovative hands-on labactivities that introduce chemical engineering students to molecular biology by challenging themto harness natural convection phenomena to perform DNA replication via the polymerase chainreaction (PCR).Experimentally, we have constructed convective PCR stations incorporating a simple design forloading and

For many years, candleswere the preferred method for lighting. In the late 19th century, Thomas Edison is credited withinventing the first incandescent light bulb that dominated use for about 100 years. More recently,more energy efficient technologies, such as fluorescent light bulbs, have displaced the olderincandescent bulbs. Most recently, a Nobel prize was awarded for technologies related to LEDlight bulbs that are
