Teaching and learning methods
This unit consists of recorded lecture videos, workshop classes, computer labs and one laboratory experiment. Learning in the unit is mainly through the active and collaborative learning activities during the workshops, the assignments, and the report for the Aspen Plus process simulation and laboratory experiment. Before the start of each week, students are expected to watch recorded lecture videos, complete their recommended readings and take an online quiz. These are important background information for the workshops each week where learning activities are designed to encourage group work, problem-solving, critical thinking and sharing ideas. There is a group assignment to provide opportunities for teamwork. Aspen Plus is used to reinforce concepts and provide the ability to solve complex problems.

Computer lab allocation
There is a 2-hour computer lab scheduled each week commencing in week 2. Students must sign up for one computer lab session only using Allocate+.

Laboratory group allocation
This unit contains one laboratory – Mass and Energy Balances on Air Conditioning, to be completed during the semester. Students must choose the date and time they are available and enrol into a particular session by using the sign-up sheet on Moodle. Students not allocated to a particular laboratory group will not be accepted into that session without the written consent of the unit coordinator. Once a particular session is full (limit of 4 students per group), no more students will be accepted.
