Hands-on learning modules have been developed and have been shown to engageinterest, teach concepts, and improve knowledge retention for students [4, 5]. These modulesmake concrete what may have been abstract concepts, allowing students to connect theory withexperience.

[2] including case studies in the unit operations laboratory course [3] or thechemical reaction engineering course [4]. The most common approach has been to incorporatelearning modules on ethics in the context of process safety [5]. The way in which process safetyis taught to students depends on the department (and university), with some schools having adedicated process safety course while others teach it as part of the senior design course. Teachingstudents about the concepts of ethical decision making in the context of process safety makes sensefrom an educational perspective, in part, due to the ongoing efforts to instill a culture of safety inall young chemical engineers [5].

A distinctive feature of UOLs compared toundergraduate laboratories in other fields, like chemistry, is the use of the so-called pilot-scaleexperimentation[3] which introduces students to new scales of experimentation, mainly orientedtoward the manufacturing industry. From the educational point of view, pilot-scaleexperimentation in UOLs is a unique experience for undergraduate chemical engineeringstudents but it might hamper the ability to teach laboratory courses outside of lab facilities.

students learning about course outcomes (Figure 1). The overall structure of this approach to PBL is that students are presented with a problem and consider what they know and what they need to know in order to address the problem. The students’ questions then drive the readings as well as lecture and laboratory content. Students then integrate what they have learned to propose a solution to the problem, communicate their result, and the cycle begins afresh. The course was designed using suggestions from “Small Teaching Online” [9]. For example, because it is easier to be isolated from classmates in an online course, a number of practices were used to support student
