appointment as an Assistant Research Scientist, Dr. Tadd began teaching part time in the Chemical Engineering Department. He has taught the junior heat and mass transfer laboratory course, ChE 360, and the senior-level process design and simulation course, ChE 487. Dr. Tadd officially joined the Chemical Engineering faculty as a full-time lecturer in Fall 2013, teaching the process design course senior design and the junior year separations course, ChE 343. Most recently, Dr. Tadd has been developing an elective course on statistics and applications to industrial quality, including an overview of SPC, Six Sigma terminology and techniques, and basic design of experiments.Ms. Elaine Wisniewski, University of Michigan Elaine

Page 26.748.3A significant amount of discussion was undertaken to decide if the fieldtrip should be offered forcredit or non-credit. Upon a recommendation by the Dean of the College of Engineering, thecourse was offered for one credit. There were two reasons for this decision. First, students wererequired to participate in approximately twenty hours of lecture and laboratory activities over thefour-day trip. Second, offering the course for credit allowed the students’ participation to appearon their

Accordingly, beginning with fall, 2013 semester, the course changed to a digitalcasebook1 prepared by law-school faculty at Lewis & Clark College and at the University ofGeorgia. The new text was completely up-to-date, featured helpful commentary and studyquestions, and cost about one-fourth of the hardbound book.

innovative solutions.30,31Experimenting has historically been core to engineering and engineering education, as is evidentby ABET’s learning outcome specifying that students should be able to “design and conductexperiments”.32 As a result, laboratory instruction has long been a staple of engineeringeducation. In Crismond and Adams’ (2012) Informed Design Teaching and Learning matrix, theability to conduct valid experiments was identified as a key design ability.33 From theperspective of engineering students, experimenting has been depicted as supplemental to andreinforcing of the general theory learned from lecture or a textbook.34 Therefore, the connectionbetween experimenting and innovation within engineering seems direct and pervasive.The

Fundamentally, Innovation Sandbox is a clubhouse where students acrossall majors and academic levels can meet to explore modern technology and apply it to extremelybroad topics. Any development beyond early exploration and play is better served in othercampus machine shops and laboratories
