During this time his primary teaching and course develop- ment responsibilities were wide-ranging, but included running the Unit Operations laboratory, introducing Aspen Plus software to the curriculum, and developing a course for a new M.S. program on Renewable Energy (EUREC). In conjunction with his teaching appointment, he supervised dozens of internships (a part of the curriculum at the Hanze), and a number of undergraduate research projects with the Energy Knowledge Center (EKC) as well as a master’s thesis.

As much aspossible, “real-world” applications are used so that students get a sense that what they arelearning is important and relevant.

The students tested weekly for common problem analytes such as nitrates (a big problem for our state) and water hardness, another problem which increases costs on campus related to maintaining heating and cooling lines. The students learned and applied new laboratory techniques and analysis methods. The results were collected, analyzed, and a poster and report were created to share the results with the director of the physical plant.  Science Outreach Activities - in the first year of the grant students partnered with the local public library to create and implement a series of 3 science activity

computer-based models at theexpense of physical models. This fact is behind a general trend of teaching applied engineeringsubjects with minimal students’ involvement with physical set-ups including laboratoryexperiments. Carrying out laboratory experiments and generating experimental data, visiting aproject site, and using pencil and paper to produce a schematic, are gradually fading away. Thesetraditional tools were instrumental in developing an engineering common sense. It is argued herethat generating data from physical models is potentially a great learning tool, particularly whenthe model is built by the students. Building a model, testing a model, generating physical datafrom the model, and analyzing said data, help students alternate

To examine what traditional and inquiry practice look like in a classroom, it is necessaryto first define these terms. As stated previously, inquiry is most commonly associated with the Page 12.830.2theory of constructivism. Teaching through inquiry has its roots in education as early as thebeginning of the nineteenth century with John Dewey and his laboratory school8.
