Hu, Jingchen – Journal of Statistics Education, 2020
We propose a semester-long Bayesian statistics course for undergraduate students with calculus and probability background. We cultivate students' Bayesian thinking with Bayesian methods applied to real data problems. We leverage modern Bayesian computing techniques not only for implementing Bayesian methods, but also to deepen students'…

Mantawy, Islam M.; Rusch, Conner; Ghimire, Sushil; Lantz, Lucas; Dhamala, Hari; Shrestha, Bipesh; Lampert, Anthony; Khadka, Mohit; Bista, Anima; Soni, Rhytham; Shaik, Abdulu Saleem; Lujan, Eric; Boyd, Mika; Pickings, Richard; Mabrich, Alexander – Education Sciences, 2019
Educational approaches in structural engineering have focused on classical methods for solving problems with manual calculations through assignments, quizzes, and exams. The use of computational software to apply the learned knowledge has been ignored for decades. This paper describes an educational approach to tackle the lack of applicable…

Joo, Yong Lak; Choudhary, Devashish – Chemical Engineering Education, 2006
For decades, every chemical engineer has been asked to have a background in separations. The required separations course can, however, be uninspiring and superficial because understanding many separation processes involves conventional graphical methods and commercial process simulators. We utilize simple, user-­friendly mathematical software,…
