So many K-16 laboratory activities tend to explore a single dependentvariable as the independent variable in changed. Then students address the question: “Whaterrors influence your results?” This is an important question to address; however, novicelearners need to investigate error not have it thrown in as an after

To design FlowVisual, we focus on integration-based flowvisualization as it is most widely used in practice. For integration-based flow visualization,particles or seeds are placed in a vector field and advected over time. The traces or field-linesthat the particles follow, e.g., streamlines for steady flow and pathlines for unsteady flow, depictthe underlying vector data.Teaching the core concepts of fluid dynamics has not significantly changed over the years.
