Subject of Process Modeling and Design: A Compelling Education Module It is widely accepted that educational outcomes are more successful when students have akeen interest in the subject, and this typically happens when the subject is something near anddear to them. It is also widely acknowledged that most college student show a keen interest inbeer. In our experience with students in engineering, this often translates into an interest in thebrewing process and at times has culminated in students engaging in home brewing. It is naturalthen to use this interest to engage students in educational exercises around one or more aspects ofbrewing technology.[1, 2] In the Department of Chemical Engineering at Villanova University,we have

Library instruction sessions began as simple introductions to the library resourcesand initially were presentation-oriented. As the ES 1000 class developed and the researchquestions and projects became more involved, we began to develop more “hands-on” classsessions. The library classroom also had technology upgrades, making it easier to conduct thesesessions.

These processes are intrinsically dynamic, in the sense thattheir variables are constantly changing with time; yet in most chemical engineering programs,the first and only course that focuses on dynamic behavior is PD&C. In this single course,students are required to develop a wide range of knowledge, abilities, and skills (KAS) coveringboth dynamics and control, such as those defined by Edgar et al. and
