Abstract:
Virtual System Explorer 2006 simulates small water system operations for workshop presentations on set-top DVD players and tracks user progress as a computer-based DVD. Users learn the basics of system operation, as well as how to recognize system deficiencies, perform a security risk assessment, and improve the financial and management capacity of a system. The three systems featured in this program are an untreated ground water system, a treated ground water system, and a surface water system. Contents:
Users can begin with a narrated two-hour overview of system operations in the "Exploration Basics" course, and then progress to a half-hour interactive tour of each system -- a ground water system with no treatment, a ground water system with treatment and a small surface water treatment system. Three operational problems are presented in each system "Exploration" that must be solved. These will be in-depth activities, each lasting about ten minutes.
In total this tool is four individual courses that total five hours of study:
Exploration Basics: 2 hrs
Exploration 1: 1 hr
Exploration 2: 1 hr
Exploration 3: 1 hr
