They conclude with the following: “… we believe that major changes to traditionalhigher education assessments such as essays and online exams are in order to address the existence of increasinglypowerful AI, unless universities want to be akin to driving schools that teach [horse riding]” [18]. This paper does not long consider language models that can be used to write student assignments; it is mentionedas an area of tangential concern to educators. The primary focus of

Our emphasis in this paper ison providing materials to foster computational thinking in the chemical engineeringundergraduate curriculum; others have developed computational thinking assessments [35-39]that may also be of interest to readers who adopt our materials in their classrooms. Three“computational practices” apply computational thinking for problem solving [34]: (1) automatingprocedures and processes, (2) using models to understand systems, and (3) collecting, analyzing,and communicating data. These are all relevant practices for chemical engineeringundergraduates to learn and apply. Our interactive coding templates exemplify the first two ofthese computational practices.

In a Cohort Challenge, students must take leadership as soon as possible over theresearch questions and projects that will drive their activities over the course of the academicyear. This switch in roles can be confusing to both the organizers and students in a CohortChallenge. Advisors must resist the temptation to assert control over the students’ efforts toidentify a project, and students must understand that advisors and peer mentors will not providethem with answers. While this part of the process can be frustrating, it is crucial to the overallgoal of

The program’sexternal evaluation was primarily a quantitative assessment using a Likert-scale questionnaire toassess various portions of the program. While our assessment provided valuable information, wefelt that it was difficult to assess how students’ perceptions shifted during the summer. As such, aqualitative analysis of student blog posts was warranted. Additionally, since the programassessment took place at the end of the program, we only obtained a ‘snapshot’ of student’sperceptions – the analysis of student blogs over the course of the summer allows us to gather dataon student perceptions
