success. One such group is students who are diagnosed with dyslexia, a learning disabilitythat results in challenges when learning to read. These students often determine very young thatthey are not as capable in learning as their peers because they struggle to master reading. Yet,many dyslexic students are also gifted, and some researchers believe that some dyslexic studentshave a unique capacity to visualize in three dimensions, which ironically contributes to thechallenge of mastering reading in two dimensions. The ability to reason in three dimensions is anadvantage when learning STEM. This advantage should be recognized, developed andencouraged because many of these students may have the potential to be future scientists andengineers.This

PBL is grounded in the idea that students should befacilitated by instructors in self-directed experiments that encourage critical thinking and Page 20.23.2problem solving amongst peers. It has been seen that PBL is an effective method to engagestudents with the fundamental

Construction of good concept questions is often difficult and time-intensive4. TheConcept Warehouse alleviates this barrier by giving instructors access to a variety of conceptquestions in the core chemical engineering curriculum along with providing a variety of ways toutilize these questions in their courses. Instructors can either assign these questions as homeworkor use them in class as part of active learning pedagogies (e.g. peer instruction). If using conceptquestions in class, the instructor can have students respond using their clickers
