directly related to student motivation. Students heavily preferredand favored the two hands-on learning assignments. It is concluded that instructors should moveforward with the reimagining of the chemical engineering introductory course by including moreexperiential learning opportunities that reinforce key learning concepts and moving away from theclassic passive learning structure. In the future, the course instructors should seek more opportunitiesto engage with students in the introductory course. This action should lead to achieving DFW ratesseen before Fall 2019.
