Though commonlyperceived in an entertainment setting, comics provide an effective alternative to traditionalteaching methods such as textbooks or lectures1. In this study, comics have been specifically usedto demystify the field of chemical engineering and introduce the many opportunities it presents tostudents and professionals alike. 1.1 Chemical Engineering Enrollment The perception of chemical engineering curriculums in national undergraduate programs, aswell as of existing post-graduate opportunities, are often restrictive in nature.

When this information is needed, the working memory retrieves it from long-term memory.CLT addresses cognitive load through instructional design [8], [9]. Cognitive load represents thedemands that an activity imposes on working memory. As mentioned earlier, the capacity ofworking memory is limited, and an excessive cognitive load can impair its functionality. Thenew CLT categorizes cognitive load into intrinsic and extraneous loads. Specifically, intrinsicload refers to the complexity of the information being processed and the knowledge to processthat information. In

Experimentation with various metals could be tested under controlled conditions includingthe ability to apply lubrication or non-lubricative additives. Consistent contact between surfacescauses friction and wear resulting in the loss of structural integrity of the material over time.Therefore, lubrication and design play an intricate role in improving the life of metals operatingunder various load conditions.In this experiment, a Block-On-Ring
