However, the operability of complete processes is usually outside thescope of these courses.An observation from teaching process design over a period of approximately 25 years is thatstudents have become increasing adept at using computer software and performing increasinglycomplex simulations using simulator software. Parametric optimization and extensive heatintegration are examples of improvements that can be and that are now easily simulated butwould have been nearly impossible or prohibitively time consuming only 25 years ago.

In this paper we discuss howthe authors make use of the software package Mathematica to create lectures allowing oneto expose key concepts by taking advantage of the programming, manipulation, visual-ization, and animation capabilities of the computer program Mathematica, developed byWolfram Research. The emphasis of this paper is as much on the way a lecture can bedelivered using Mathematica as it is on the specific examples presented. In other words,we want to illustrate that software such as Mathematica, by combining symbolic manipu-lation, computation, and visualization, allows one to turn “a laptop and a projector” intoan “electronic color-board” which makes for effective and dynamic
