Teaching chemical engineering using Jupyter notebook: Problem generators and lecturing tools Domínguez Toribio, Juan Carlos Alonso Rubio, María Virginia González Gómez, Emilio José Guijarro Gil, María Isabel Miranda Carreño, Rubén Oliet Pala, María Mercedes Rigual Hernández, Victoria de los Ángeles Toledo Gabriel, José Manuel Yustos Cuesta, Pedro Villar Chavero, María del Mar The primary objective of this study is to develop teaching materials for chemical engineering students (or students pursuing other related B.Sc./M.Sc. degrees) that encourage self-learning to facilitate understanding and the development of problem-solving skills. Tools are oriented to support the teaching of “Introduction to Chemical Engineering” courses to 1st year B.Sc. students in Chemical Engineering, 2nd year B.Sc. students in Chemistry, and 3rd year B.Sc. students in Biochemistry at the Universidad Complutense de Madrid (UCM). Problem generators of standard exercises, as an additional complement to the exercises that are used in the lectures, seminars, and assignments to facilitate the learning of the students, have been developed. These generators provide exercises to students with “unlimited” initial values (with certain restrictions). The software that was used to develop these materials was Jupyter Notebook, which runs under the Python 3.6 language. The problem generators can be classified into fixed problem generators, case-based generators, and random problem generators. Additionally, lecturing tools have been developed to support teaching using live/interactive examples. These examples can learning understanding of various topics of the courses. 2026-06-25T08:18:10Z 2026-06-25T08:18:10Z 2026-06-25T08:18:10Z 2021 journal article https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14352/137749 XXXX-XXXX 10.1016/j.ece.2021.06.004 eng Innova-Docen-cia 2017/2018 Ref. 11 J.C.
