The goal of the project was to encourage creativity in science. The framework was adesign with a theme of sustainability. The authors opined that creativity is often connected to thearts. However, connecting ideas and recognizing similarities and differences are also consideredcreative endeavors.

Evaluations of both of thesewere generally positive. However, not all instructors have the resources to develop or implementactual experiments, and some of these instructors have turned to computational tools or computersimulations[6-7, 25-36] or case study projects [37-38] to provide surrogate experiential

Students are given a “capstone” experience in which theyhave the opportunity to synthesize engineering science and statistics principles to optimizereactor performance. Since the simulation is from first principles, students can interpret theoutputs given by the DOE in terms of the chemical and physical phenomena in the system. TheVirtual CVD reactor allows students a broader and more realistic experience in using the DOEmethodology for process improvement - as if they were operating an actual industrial reactor.The project scope also includes development and

Hands-on units that are to be used atmultiple stations within a classroom need to be low cost, light and simple to build.

The other was taught initially in a manner that attempted to simply removethe hands-on component of the pedagogy. In response to student feedback, this was shifted to an inter-group collaborative environment with each group providing hands-on demonstrations for the rest of theclass. As shown by a focus group study, survey, and end-of-semester written course evaluations, thestudents in the CHAPL section showed greater enthusiasm for the course.
