Wilson (UK-Lex) in a Fall 2016 visit before initiating his Spring 2017 sabbatical and Prof. D. Englert (UK-Pad) during the sabbatical period. To begin, Prof. Van Wie set-up an LC-DLM with ancillary fluidreservoir, pump, tubing and connectors, while the new implementing professors set-up acompanion system. They then went through student team-based worksheets to practice datacollection and review the activity-guiding questions on the worksheet.

students working together too closely or copying Excel files. Beginning in Fall2008, an increased percentage of the cases were students who have accessed unauthorized copiesof the solution key on-line and duplicated the solution key for part or all of their solution. Theproliferation of “information sharing sites” like www.chegg.com and www.coursehero.com havechanged the preferred means of cheating from copying a friend’s homework to copying somethingon-line. In addition, use of cell phones, smart watches, and wireless capability was not commonin the mid 2000’s. The original videos included a scenario involving a copy machine, which led astudent to comment, “What is that? Why don’t they just use their phone?”In an effort to modernize the video

devices for chemical engineering applications have also been developed, includingmicrofluidic devices (complete with valves, pumps, and mixers) [3–5], structured monolithiccatalysts [6], reactors with complex geometries to enhance chemical synthesis [7,8], andchromatography columns. Aside from their lower cost, the main benefit of these devices is thatthey can be specifically designed for unique applications in the lab. 3D printing also allows theuser to create complex structures and shapes that cannot be fabricated by other traditional methods.

They could also be asked howthey think the various velocities could be measured with this setup. After showing thedemonstration, students will be given a reflection activity on their homework assignment, inwhich they will be asked to directly address any differences in their understanding between thepre-demonstration activity and afterwards. Students will also be asked for feedback forimproving the activity. As before, some indirect assessment of learning gains may be achievedby comparing scores from 2017 and 2018 on relevant problem(s) from quizzes and

student. Examining that data in addition to the data included in this paperwould give further insight into the changing elements of student perceptions of an engineeringmajor.Overall, it appears as though a student’s detailed knowledge of a career path is loosely connectedwith certainty in a major. Providing more concrete details of post-college life in the workplacemay allow students to make their major choice with more confidence. This paper provides aninitial investigation in chemical engineering major selection and lays the foundation for futurestudies.References [1] Montmarquette, C; Cannings, K; Mahseredjian, S, "How do young people choose college majors?"
