Visualization applied in various power system topics In the power system analysis course a series of information visualization tasks wereassigned to students who were challenged to develop visual cognition systems that would aidthem and their fellow students in better understanding and retaining core concepts of thecourse material. For the purpose of the visualization projects, information visualization isdefined as the use of visual aides, such as computer graphics, to organize and display data insuch a way that facilitates successful decision-making and analysis

Documentation of its application in engineeringcourses indicates that JiTT can be effective when students are expected to both learn conceptsand put the concepts into practice5. Published literature did not reveal adoption of JiTT for anyengineering technology courses before 2005, but its success in engineering courses led theauthors to believe implementation of JiTT in a mechanical engineering technology (MET) coursecould benefit student learning.At Purdue University, the upper division MET courses are typically applications-oriented.Students complete at least four MET elective courses, and all have an open-ended projectrequirement.

The students have studied groundwater remediationtechniques and are tasked in a final class project to conduct a pilot study to determine ifbiodegradation of contamination at the Ft. Campbell site is significant. This project requiresstudents to perform a tracer study on the bench-scale karst system and then use thebiodegradation rate data from a separate study to predict the extent of biodegradation in thebench scale system. Then a field study is done with a conservative tracer to establish residence-time distribution in the karst aquifer (photo 3).
