The modules interleave content, video and practice which gives the studentsthe opportunity to check their understanding by performing low-stakes assessments that are inthe same format as the summative module quizzes. The practice is typically presented in theformat of an online quiz. Some practice questions present new concepts directly in the question,like the ‘hotspot’ instrument question shown in Figure 3a. Others use randomized parametersthat allow for unlimited attempts. Formative feedback is provided immediately upon completionto help the students master a concept (Figure 3b).

Future work should focus on a morerobust assessment of how the PBL approach enhanced learning of course learning outcomes andoverall student satisfaction with the course structure. A more thorough assessment wouldprovide valuable guidance to others looking to replicate the teaching approach in othermultidisciplinary courses. Furthermore, refinement of the existing activities or the addition ofmore activities could likely further improve the course and associated learning outcomes.References[1] M. B.

Students would be exposed to all of the processesand chemical engineering concepts related to biodiesel production including reactions,separations, fluid flow, heat and mass transfer, process control, thermodynamics, and materialand energy balances. The goal was to introduce students to the fundamental concepts at a highlevel while providing an opportunity to see how the concepts are integrated while exploring in ahands-on laboratory.

Howeverfundamental it may be to engineering students, SHM is one of the more demanding topics andoften misunderstood. Researchers found that passive instruction by talented teachers imparted littleconceptual understanding of Newtonian mechanics [1]. Good physical insight can lead to a deeperunderstanding of displacement and oscillation, which is a pervasive phenomenon in STEM.

The primary point of similarity wasthat all the surveys and exam questions administered in this study were the same and were madetogether. All the exam questions were presented in a multiple-choice format to reflect the mostcommon method of questioning on the FE exam.University A required students to take the FE exam and students were reimbursed for the examcost if they passed. At University A, most senior students (approximately 75% or more per year)in civil engineering take the FE review course and depend on it as their sole source ofpreparation for the exam. Universities B and C strongly encouraged students to attempt the FEexam prior to graduation. At University B, review sessions
