Scholes, Colin A. – Chemical Engineering Education, 2023
A teaching module for HAZOPs is presented here that was included in the capstone subject. The module included a lecture, class exercise and an advisors' led workshop. Some students undertake HAZOPs individually, representing academic misconduct. A verification strategy, based on Zipf's law, is presented that analyses word frequency and key words…

M? Quyên Lê, Katrina; Butterfield, Anthony; Kelly, Kerry; Gaillardon, Pierre-Emmanuel; Tingey, Kyle; Becnel, Thomas – Chemical Engineering Education, 2018
Using low-cost electronic components and building blocks, we have developed an effective teaching module where students design and test light-scattering, air-quality sensors to introduce them to chemical and environmental engineering research. This module has been successful in engaging the public, developing citizen scientists, and bridging gaps…

Schultz, Kelly M.; Snyder, Mark A. – Chemical Engineering Education, 2019
A hands-on educational module was created to illustrate the scope of chemical engineering. Students are taught fundamental concepts that they integrate in a laboratory experience designing and fabricating a 'plant-on-a-chip' microfluidic device capable of continuous processing of reactive flows. Students gain insight into chemical engineering…
