from University of Washington,students are required to enroll in a sequence of two Unit Operations laboratory courses (ChemE436 and 437). Only the second course (ChemE 437) was modified in this project. The first course(ChemE 436) offers conceptually independent experiments in transport phenomena with specificfocus on fluid flow and heat transfer. Therefore, the first course in the sequence serves as a goodbasis for assessment of the effectiveness of the new structure. The second laboratory (ChemE437) offers experiments involving unit operations focusing specifically on mass transport andchemical reactions. This is the only laboratory course that has been modified to have the “full-plant” structure. In both courses, students work in groups of

Work on assessing theenacted curriculum was done to create a dependent variable for use in research onteachers‘ content decisions11. In contrast to the intended curriculum, which depicts theidealized classroom experience, as stated in the printed teacher and student textbooks, theenacted curriculum is empirically established. Observations show that the enactedcurriculum is dynamic – it often deviates from the intended plan and varies from teacherto teacher and classroom to classroom based not only on the teacher‘s actions, but also onthe student needs.

It embraces uncertainty and explores multiple plausiblefutures to spark imagination and address complex challenges [13, 14]. As James Dator famouslystated, “The future cannot be predicted because the future does not exist” [15].In engineering education, the use of futures literacy has primarily focused on planning and riskmanagement. While these approaches are valuable, they tend to constrain the broader,exploratory potential of futures thinking.
