As a co-PI team, wediscussed how Year 1’s focus on self-inquiry could have made faculty feel more vulnerable toshare their reflections in writing. We learned from the evaluation reports that some memberswere concerned that, with the small community size, their work would be easily re-identified. Asan alternative data source, we have turned to materials collected during the workshops: Reportsby participants, reflections written by the PI team shortly after each meeting, and the evaluationteam’s reports, which share insightful summaries of focus group data.

the lessons mainly focus on theintroduction of the EOP concepts. However, students’ projects may be changed for other courses.For example, the feedback loop was in line well with systems thinking, so that projects related tocontrol system design fit well with the scope of Chemical Process Control. As for Process Design,the life cycle analysis should be emphasized more in the students’ project.Reference[1] S. E. Uhunamure and K.

Based on this experience, I will try to emphasize even more the need forstudents to network early. I want to make the assignment better for the students.

Thislack in problem-solving proficiency, along with unit conversion difficulties, is important torecognize and understand as these are key components of engineering. In addition to gapsnoticed in the chemical engineering course, Professor A has also noticed greater difficulties instudents’ ability to utilize basic algebra and trigonometry skills compared to pre-pandemicstudents, amongst students in the engineering readiness course.Student Behavioral
