  Self-Evaluation of Industrial Case Studies with Iterative Improvements to Support Chemical and Biological Systems Engineering and Sustainability Teaching and Learning
  Author(s): U. Tuzun*
  
  Industrial case studies play an increasingly important role in the teaching of systems engineering and sustainability within an industrial ecological framework utilising metacognitive and experiential learning principles. The principal classroom teaching tool of the experiential learning combines the student’s development of self-awareness and selfevaluation skills whilst they focus on providing optimal solutions to challenges provided by industrial case study examples. The learning process here relies on developmental and experiential learning with students attempting at iterative improvements to the industrial processes and plant operations being studied with a view to create a “best fit” to the efficiency of use of the resources at hand, specific ecological setting and circular economy constraints regarding recycle, re-use and regeneration of resources.
