Creator:: Brooks, Bill J.
Abstract:: This dissertation centers on development of two web-based, in class learning tools, the AIChE Concept Warehouse (CW) and the Web-based Interactive Science and Engineering Learning Tool (WISE), and describes the investigation of student learning through their use. The intent of these tools is to promote deeper conceptual understanding in students...

Creator:: Smith, Christina
Abstract:: Providing transformational learning opportunities for undergraduate students demands changes to teaching practices. In large-enrollment introductory courses, graduate teaching assistants (GTAs) play an important role in facilitating student learning in small group environments. However GTAs are not provided the pedagogical development necessary to support them to be effective in their teaching...

Creator:: Gunderson, Eric P.
Abstract:: The effect of cosputtered catalyst on growth and alignment of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) grown by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) was investigated. Aligned CNTs were observed using a cosputtered catalytic metal deposited directly on boro-aluminosilicate glass. Catalytic metal alloys were sputtered directly onto the substrate using magnetron sputtering. Deposition...

Creator:: Whinnery, Jaynie L.
Abstract:: This thesis characterizes the feedback between the instructor and student teams engaged in a Virtual Bioreactor (VBioR) Laboratory Project. The project allows senior-level chemical, biological, and environmental engineering students to apply their developing knowledge and skills in an industrially situated process optimization project. Feedback is an important tool for instructors...

Creator:: Gilbuena, Debra M.
Abstract:: The Virtual Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) Process Development Project provides the context for the two areas of the research presented in this dissertation. The first area, generally referred to as feedback in this dissertation, focuses on student learning and the interactions of students and instructors that take place in the...
