This motivation was also reflected in student responses to asurvey given on the first day of class, that queried their attraction to chemical engineering, whichwill be presented in a later section.One place to connect the course material to the human element, and resulting societal impact, isthrough integration of real-world biotechnology problems. The paucity of publishedbiochemical-themed projects for a mass balance curriculum challenged us to develop a newproject that incorporates biotechnology. A straightforward example is applying mass balances tohuman alcohol metabolism. During the development of this project we decided that it was alsoimportant to integrate the following pedagogical elements. First, we wanted

As a result of the curriculum revision that hasrecently been implemented, students in the electrical emphasis have a number of class-electivesin their senior year. In the first semester the class chooses between Analog Circuit Design andDigital Signal Processing. This year's senior class was the first to have this choice and theydecided to go digital, inaugurating the full-semester offering of DSP. The textbook that theinstructor chose for this first offering was Orfanidis' Introduction to Signal Processing15. Thistextbook was chosen because of its good balance between theory and practical

The roots of active learning canbe found in the learn-by-doing approach5, which identifies the interactions that learners engagein as a critical part of the learning process. Our use of a role-playing game, providing a contextfor and relying on interactions between fellow learners, strongly embodies these ideas.Similarly constructivist ideas about learning have given rise to a number of related pedagogicalphilosophies and associated techniques: Situated learning10, for
