It is critically important for engineering graduates to have the appropriate knowledge to respond to the nation's energy need. This project will create interactive web based visualization materials and tools and will evaluate their effectiveness for enhancing student understanding of fuel cell theory and design. This will provide a greater number of engineering graduates who possess the required abilities. The interactive nature of the web based materials will enable students to easily navigate the learning materials so they can investigate areas of interest to them. This will increase student interest, retention and amount of time spent learning. An interactive forum tool will also allow active learning to be implemented more easily in a classroom setting. Active learning is a proven method for enhancing student learning.Products from this project include interactive fuel cell learning materials that can be implemented nationally. Another product is an innovative material navigation system enabling students to easily identify materials that interest them. This navigation system will contribute to more time studying, and increase student retention. An interactive forum being developed will help instructors create active classrooms that will enhance student learning. The project also includes data driven assessment and evaluation of the effectiveness of interactive visualization materials on student learning.

对于工科毕业生来说，拥有适当的知识来应对国家的能源需求至关重要。该项目将创建基于网络的交互式可视化材料和工具，并将评估它们在提高学生对燃料电池理论和设计的理解方面的有效性。这将为工科毕业生提供更多具备所需能力的人才。基于网络的材料的互动性将使学生能够轻松地浏览学习材料，以便他们可以调查自己感兴趣的领域。这将增加学生的兴趣、记忆力和学习时间。互动式论坛工具还将使主动学习更容易在课堂环境中实施。主动学习是一种经过验证的增强学生学习的方法。该项目的产品包括可在全国范围内实施的交互式燃料电池学习材料。另一个产品是创新的材料导航系统，使学生能够轻松地识别他们感兴趣的材料。这一导航系统将有助于更多的学习时间，并增加学生的留存率。正在开发的互动论坛将帮助教师创建活跃的教室，促进学生的学习。该项目还包括对交互式可视化材料对学生学习的有效性进行数据驱动的评估和评估。
