The VGEE curriculum, including concept models and data preparation, was developed by Dan Bramer, Colleen Contrisciane, Dean Elliott, Ken Hay, Katia Issa, Mary Marlino, Don Middleton, Rajul Pandya, Mohan Ramamurthy, Tim Scheitlin, Caryssa Seider Marianne Weingroff, Robert Wilhelmson and John Yoder. THREDDS data catalogs and tools are designed and maintained by Ben Domenico, John Caron, Ethan Davis, Robb Kambic and Stefano Nativi. The VGEE visualization environment was developed by Don Murray, Jeff McWhirter and Stuart Wier. All work was supported by the National Science Foundation. The Visual Geophysical Exploration Environment (VGEE) Learning from student-constructed visualizations of geophysical data The VGEE’s visualization tool is adapted from a scientific tool, the Integrated Data Viewer. The visualization tool allows students to construct three dimensional, multi-variable animations of authentic data. An inquiry-based curriculum to guide student exploration ABSTRACT: The VGEE (Visual Geophysical Exploration Environment) is an online learning environment that helps undergraduate students learn fundamental Earth system science concepts through hands-on interaction with scientific visualization and data. AcknowledgementsLinks Rajul Pandya *, Dan Bramer, Dean Elliott, Ken Hay, Mary Marlino, Don Middleton, Tim Scheitlin, Mohan Ramamurthuy, Marianne Weingroff, and Robert Wilhelmson The curriculum in the VGEE is catalogued in DLESE. Since this curriculum also integrates a visualization tool, concept models and access to distributed data, it provides a way to discover data and the appropriate analysis tools. The curriculum helps students develop inquiry skills by modeling a four-stage investigatory process. It also integrates concept models, visualization tools and data access into an internet document. A learner-centered interface to a scientific visualization tool Concept models help students understand scientific concepts Concept models help learners discover fundamental physical relationships in simplified, idealized settings. Concept models can also be used as probes to investigate how these same relationships influence real phenomena. A suite of El Niño-related data sets adapted for student use Relevant data sets are cataloged using THREDDS (THematic Real-time Environmental Data Distributed Services) services. These catalogs provide online access to distributed data. THREDDS services allow learners to easily access the most recent data.
