The importance of digital repositories for teaching
is increasingly being recognised:
- CACHE (Computer
Aids for Chemical Engineering) is a not-for-profit organisation
whose purpose is to promote cooperation among universities,
industry and government in the development and distribution
of computer-related and/or technology-based educational aids for the
chemical engineering profession.
- National Effective
Teaching Institute (NETI)
Dr Richard Felder is the Hoechst Celanese Professor Emeritus
of Chemical Engineering at North Carolina State University. He
has contributed over 200 publications to the fields of science
and engineering education and chemical process engineering,
and writes "Random
Thoughts," a column on educational methods and issues for the quarterly
journal Chemical Engineering Education . With his wife and
colleague, Dr Rebecca Brent, he codirects the National
Effective Teaching Institute (NETI) and regularly offers teaching
effectiveness workshops on campuses and at conferences around
the world.
- GreenEngineering
provides green engineering tutorial problems, course modules
etc. for all core chemical engineering courses. It is password
protected to prevent students accessing worked solutions to
problems. However, academics can readily obtain a password
upon request. The problems and solutions included in the Separations
Processes module are specifically written to accompany the
book "Green Engineering: Environmentally Conscious Design of
Chemical Processes" by David T Allen and David R Shonnard.
- NEEDS (The National Engineering Education Delivery System)
a digital library for engineering education
- Virginia Tech applets
for engineering education
- Liverpool's
matter materials science resources
- Rose-Hulman engineering
case studies
- OpenDOAR:
The Directory of Open Access Repositories
- IEC: Internet Engineering
