Cross-curricular project-based laboratory learning enables hands-on interdisciplinary education for chemical engineering students
To enhance students’ interdisciplinary awareness and understanding of (i) high-pressure reactors, (ii) zeolites as catalysts and (iii) analysis of complex reactor effluents with unknown compounds, the laboratory exercises of two courses are coupled into a cross-curricular Project-Based laboratory Learning trajectory. The alkylation of anisole with 1-hexene proves to be an excellent case study for students to learn new objectives and strengthen the skills acquired in prior courses, emulating the work of expert engineers and analytical chemists. The time-efficient cross-curricular project proves effective in fostering teamwork and addressing complex engineering and analytical challenges. Student testimonials highlight the integrated project's success in providing new insights and cultivating advanced decision-making skills during experimentation. This approach also encourages future interdisciplinary collaborations between chemical engineering and analytical practice classes.
期刊介绍:
Education for Chemical Engineers was launched in 2006 with a remit to publisheducation research papers, resource reviews and teaching and learning notes. ECE is targeted at chemical engineering academics and educators, discussing the ongoingchanges and development in chemical engineering education. This international title publishes papers from around the world, creating a global network of chemical engineering academics. Papers demonstrating how educational research results can be applied to chemical engineering education are particularly welcome, as are the accounts of research work that brings new perspectives to established principles, highlighting unsolved problems or indicating direction for future research relevant to chemical engineering education. Core topic areas: -Assessment- Accreditation- Curriculum development and transformation- Design- Diversity- Distance education-- E-learning Entrepreneurship programs- Industry-academic linkages- Benchmarking- Lifelong learning- Multidisciplinary programs- Outreach from kindergarten to high school programs- Student recruitment and retention and transition programs- New technology- Problem-based learning- Social responsibility and professionalism- Teamwork- Web-based learning
