Enhancing the autonomy of students in chemical engineering education with LABVIRTUAL platform

Engineering educators have been developing different approaches to supplement scientific background and further develop the ability for autonomous and critical thinking in students. In 2009, the University of Coimbra has made available on-line a virtual platform with a wide scope, directed towards Chemical Engineering education. The platform is divided into four different educational topics: Unit Operations and Separations, Chemical Reaction, Process Systems Engineering and Biological Processes. These sections include simulators, applications, and case studies to help understanding chemical/biochemical processes and improve their autonomy.This paper presents an assessment of the use of that platform by two different groups of students in the school years of 2015/2016 and 2018/2019: a group from the 3rd-year of Chemical Engineering, and another one from a Project Design course (2nd cycle, MSc of Chemical Engineering). A case study addressing the synthesis of phthalic anhydride by o-xylene oxidation on a fixed-bed catalytic reactor is also given to show the use of existing simulators in LABVIRTUAL.

Sales Education for Engineering Students: What Drives Interest and Choice?

Universities increasingly make their sales curriculum available for groups other than dedicated sales students. This study investigates engineering students’ drivers that predict interest in sales certification, as well as drivers that predict actual choice for a sales curriculum. We focus on engineering students ( n = 204) and contrast our findings with business students ( n = 179). Based on social cognitive theory, we investigate how personality (Big Five personality factors and Trait Competitiveness), ability (ACT, GPA, and Academic Self-Efficacy), and social factors (role models, and perception of salespersons) affect interest and choice. Our results indicate that although the regression models explain a reasonable amount of variance, models that work for business students do not work equally well for engineering students. Also, our analysis reveals that factors that explain interest do not explain actual choice, and vice versa. In addition, we uncover subtle gender difference when it comes to actual choice for a sales curriculum. Finally, the benefits that engineering students perceive of sales certification differ primarily based on whether students are taking sales classes, and not on degree sought.

Hidden Figures: How Pecuniary Influences Help Shape STEM Experiences for Black Students in Grades K-12

The demand for increasing participation of grades K-12 students in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education has steadily increased over time. However, the extent to which black students in K-12 gain equitable access toward a quality STEM education and eventual STEM-related careers is primarily a reflection of pecuniary influences, including socioeconomic status (SES) and inequitable educational funding. To this point, the National Science and Technology Council cautioned K-12 educators of the increasing shortage of historically marginalized students, such as black students, in STEM fields and the national and global repercussions for the U.S.A. Through a synthesis of reviewed literature including reviews of empirical studies that explore the dynamics of socioeconomics, race, and policies, and a discussion about what is missing from the literature, this article examines how SES and inequitable funding have slowed efforts toward increased participation of black students in STEM. The study concludes with final thoughts about what could be done to change course.
