Abstract

The world needs young engineers who are skillful and enthusiastic about science and who view engineering as their future career field. Historically, engineering educators have adopted traditional verbal learning while interest in visual learning has lagged behind. As a result, recently, more visualization models and high-performance computing labs have been used in teaching future young engineers. This paper presents five visualization models, incorporated into the petroleum engineering department curriculum, used to advance students’ understanding of petroleum engineering-related topics. Furthermore, it shows how these lab-scale models are being used in teaching petroleum courses. In the end, the paper shows the impact of these lab scale models on student engagement and learning by presenting students’ feedback on the use of these visualization labs in teaching petroleum engineering courses.
