The intermediate deadlines wereestablished to help ensure that students would develop a schedule plan to guide their progressthroughout the semester, and to allow for the instructor to provide constructive feedback as needed. Grading expectations were defined at the beginning of the semester when the project wasassigned. Students were reassured that artistic quality was not a priority for any of the visually-inclined projects, as long as sufficient effort was put in. Examples of insufficient effort wouldinclude developing stick figure comics, or

In fact, the new ABET student outcomes, effective in2019-2020, have a stronger emphasis on team efforts: “An ability to function effectively as amember or leader of a team that establishes goals, plans tasks, meets deadlines, and creates acollaborative and inclusive environment” (SO “3”)[6]. All these outcomes can be assessedthrough the Unit Operations Laboratory; however, the main challenge is to implement practicaltools for a team, either assigned or self-selected, to function properly throughout the semester.For instance

This is an approach that we expect to successfully address the new requirements of theAIChE Program Criteria; moreover, we expect that our students will graduate with abilities inprocess hazards analysis that will be of benefit in the workplace.BackgroundIn response to the updated ABET Program Criteria for chemical engineering that now requireconsideration of hazards associated with the processes that our students design, analyze, andcontrol, we have acknowledged the need to provide additional exposure to risk assessment andmore rigorous safety considerations in our baccalaureate chemical engineering curriculum.Therefore, we are adding simplified Process Hazard Analyses to both Unit Operations andProcess Design courses

This presents an opportunity to compare the communication skills of students whotook the technical communications course with those who did not. We plan to study students’habits while writing technical reports by analyzing their process of writing and their finalproduct, and from there draw conclusions about their communication skills. We hypothesize thata dedicated technical communications course is effective at developing communications skillsamong engineering students, and

Besides reactant recycle, threedesign groups included recycling of non-reactant chemicals added for the express purpose ofproduct recovery (triethylene glycol for water recovery, paraffin oil for isobutylene recovery, anddibutyl phthalate for maleic anhydride recovery).

as a whole, students from 1990 would find much that they recognize in the chemicalengineering curricula of today, while they might not recognize the classroom activities or co-curricular opportunities as familiar.. In discussion of these results at the AIChE 2016 AnnualMeeting, it was observed that a stable curriculum is a sign of a stable body of knowledge and amature field, rather than a sign of stagnation.Works Cited1.

Electronic copies of the maps were made, and maps were offered back to the students inthe last day of lecture for the semester.As a preliminary start to this work in progress, ten maps chosen at random from the 2016 and2017 semesters were evaluated in random order according to the holistic rubric from Besterfieldet al. It is also planned to use a more hierarchical rubric to reevaluate the rubrics. Ultimately thiswill be done for each of the approximately 90 mind maps from both the 2016 and 2017iterations.

Although nearlyall the students indicated that the simulations were highly effective in helping them learn thematerial, there was an understandable desire on the part of some students to conduct morephysical experiments and to seek to bring the simulation in closer agreement with the physicalexperiment as we had originally planned.

Another constraint in batch modeling is that thevolume of the batch must be matched with the equipment size. This imposes additionalconstraints on Equation 3. For example, not all combinations of t and A can be accommodated,if t is small and A is large, the volume of process liquid may be too small to cover the coil orjacket.Gantt charts and scheduling: The scheduling of different equipment in a given process is bestillustrated through the use of simple Gantt charts.
