It is common in DOE, to show how OFAT leads to suboptimal solution for hill climbing versus a more multifactorial approach. Getting the kids some experience with contour maps is useful in daily life and (of course) in earth sciences. You can also add color as one more way to show a variable. This gets them thinking about data visualization. All that said, not sure it helps with hard equations of div/grad/curl. But I don't remember those...I remember "feel" of multifactorial functions versus single variable functions. | |
