Resumen

A ready-to-use package of active-learning materials for a semester-long chemical engineering thermodynamics course was prepared for instructors, and similar materials are being prepared for a material and energy balance course. The course package includes ConcepTests, explanations of the ConcepTests for instructors, links to screencasts, chapter objectives, reading quizzes, links to interactive simulations, in-class exercises, homework problems, exam problems, and other active learning resources. The course package can be modified and customized to accommodate individual instructors. Access to the course package can be requested through our website www.learncheme.com.
