AB  -           Collaborative Research: Integration of Conceptual Learning        throughout the Core Chemical Engineering Curriculum – Year 1We report on the activity of the first year of this NSF project. The goal is to create a communityof learning within the discipline of chemical engineering (ChE) focused on concept-basedinstruction. We have been developing and promoting the use of a cyber-enabled infrastructurefor conceptual questions, the AIChE Concept Warehouse, which can used throughout the coreChE curriculum (Material and Energy Balances, Thermodynamics, Transport Phenomena,Kinetics and Reactor Design, and Materials Science). Conceptual questions, both as ConceptInventories and ConcepTests, are available through an interactive website maintained throughthe Education Division of the American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE), thediscipline’s major professional society. The overall objective is to lower the activation barrier forusing conceptual instruction and assessment so that many more chemical engineering facultyincorporate concept-based learning into their classes.This poster will present the preliminary design of the interactive AIChE Concept Warehousesoftware that is being used for the beta-test. The innovative software application allowsinteractive electronic use, as well as PowerPoint, Word, and pdf formats to be automaticallygenerated so that conceptual learning and evaluation can be incorporated into instruction invarious forms: in-class ConcepTests with student response (clickers, laptops, cell phones),concept inventories to evaluate student learning (or student preparation for a course), exam andhomework problems. A key element to this approach is to provide a context for conceptuallearning that reflects the richly interconnected and interrelated knowledge structures of experts.The pedagogy includes cross development and testing between items on a Concept Inventory andin ConcepTests.Results from the preliminary beta test group will be presented. Additionally, activities intendedto build community, including conference special sessions and workshops will be described.
