Keisha C. A. Antoine; Lealon L. Martin; Jorge F. Gabitto – Chemical Engineering Education, 2024
In this paper we demonstrate that using mixed reality (MR) technology can innovate our chemical engineering laboratory curriculum at Prairie View A&M University, a Historically Black College/University (HBCU). Particularly, we describe the development of a MR proof of concept to carry out a traditional fluid mechanics lab -- pressure drop as a…

Winkelmann, Kurt; Scott, Matthew; Wong, Deborah – Journal of Chemical Education, 2014
A small group of high school students performed a virtual laboratory experiment in Second Life that mimicked a real experiment in both its appearance and procedure. Lab report grades were equivalent to report grades for hands-on experiments, and the quality of students' results was similar. Results of an attitudinal survey show that students…
