The first of these (Chemical Process Visualizer – ChemProV) isa software package developed to assist students in converting written descriptions into agraphical format and then into a mathematical representation. It also provides a singleformat for the communication of the solutions to material/energy balance problemsbetween students . The second software package (On-Line Studio-Based LearningEnvironment – OSBLE) provides a means whereby the ChemProV solutions can beshared between students in an asynchronous online

The goal ofthis project is to build a strong foundation in parallel computing which would optionally culminate inadvanced, senior-level specialized courses in parallel computing and/or senior research projects. This paper describes the laboratory facility we developed to support instruction in parallel anddistributed computing and the parallel computing modules which were incorporated into three of ourcore undergraduate courses: data structures, operating systems, and programming

In the design analysis area ofengineering programs students are taught the fundamental concepts related to stresses inmechanical components and their innovative applications. Students utilize their learning toformulate problems and analyze stresses for creative design purposes. On the other handin technology programs, the focus is on utilizing efficient techniques for analysis of anexisting designs to address a specific problem, and modify or improve the design.Therefore, the emphasis is mainly on mastering the routine techniques rather than creativesolution of a problem.
