class. While design-focused or other engaging first year courses/experiences are usedfor retention [9-10], we have not witnessed this as we do not have much attrition after freshmanyear. Students who do leave usually do so after completing upper level core courses and leavedue to poor performance or choose a different engineering career path. However, the course doesdemonstrate some qualities/experiences that promote positive outcomes and retention [9-11].Additionally, student’s perception of their literature searching used to develop the papersimproved. This is consistent with collaborative writing effects [12] and will benefit students asthey continue through the program and engage in research experiences.References:[1] T. Nilsson and B

experiments focused on the production of high-value chemicalsfrom plants. At large, chemicals are synthesized from petroleum resources and it is well establishedthat the continued extraction of these resources is detrimental to the environment. On the contrary,synthesizing chemicals from “plant factories” may be a boon to the environment and have anegative carbon footprint. The program uses three initiatives: a) expanded professionaldevelopment activities for developing, teaching inquiry-based lectures and experiments, b)inclusion of sustainable high-value chemical production from plants across the laboratorycurriculum, and c) increase of student hands-on access, competency with instrumentation andcutting-edge techniques.

Each session is staffed with 2-3 upper-class students (termed teaching assistants or TAs in what follows) who provide academic as well as emotional support. During nights with high numbers of visitors, TAs group incoming students by subject and encourage them to discuss their questions amongst each other while TAs are otherwise occupied. Often this practice helps students (a) see that they are not the only ones struggling, (b) clarify their thinking by explaining what they are confused about, (c) learn to use available resources in order to make some
