She is a co- Principal Investigator for the National Science Foundation (NSF) funded Professional Formation of Engineers: Research Initiation in Engineering For- mation (PFE: RIEF) for the project- Using Digital Badging and Design Challenge Modules to Develop Professional Identity. She is a member of the department’s ABET and Undergraduate Curriculum Com- mittee, as
Business School. He served as director of this program from 2007 – 2014. His research inter- ests are in heterogeneous catalysis, materials characterization and nanomaterials synthesis. His research group has pioneered the development of electron microscopy tools for the study of catalysts. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2017 Jigsaws & Parleys: Strategies for engaging sophomore level students as a learning communityAbstractEarly chemical engineering coursework provides an important foundation in topics such asenergy and material balances. A common pedagogical approach to these topics includesproviding engineering analysis problems with basic context and a single
Professor in the Padnos College of Engineering and Computing at Grand Valley State University. She received her B.A.Sc. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Windsor, a M.B.A. from Lawrence Technological University, and a Ph.D. from Michigan State University in Materials Science and Engineering.Dr. Shannon Ciston, University of California, Berkeley Shannon Ciston is a Lecturer and Director of Undergraduate Education in the Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering Department at the University of California, Berkeley. She currently teaches undergraduate and graduate courses in technical communications and pedagogy, and conducts engineering education research on identity and motivation in non-traditional adult
faculty in their transition to using evidence-based teaching strategies. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2017 Impact of Course Structure on Learning and Self-Efficacy in a Unit Operations LaboratoryIntroductionIn the chemical engineering curriculum, the unit operations laboratory course traditionally servesseveral key roles in the development of students as professional engineers. The primary goal ofthe course is to apply chemical engineering theory learned in core courses to the operation ofequipment. As part of this process, however, numerous additional skills are often also learnedand/or emphasized: experimental design, instrumentation, technical communication

Engineering Education, 2011 Design of a Senior Laboratory Sequence to Guide Students in Multiple Academic Programs Towards Workforce PreparednessAbstractThis paper describes the integration of upper division experiential laboratory and project coursesin the chemical engineering, biological engineering, and environmental engineering programs atOregon State University. Student enrollment has doubled during this 5 year process. The year-long integrated curriculum is built around a theme of “college to career” transition and targets awide array of learning objectives. This paper focuses on three: experimental methodology,communication, and project management. It is demonstrated that the dramatic changes havebeen implemented while successfully
