The complexities of observing flow phenomena in porous media have made it difficult to teach the course, Flow in Porous Media, to undergraduate students majoring in petroleum engineering. In this study, we propose an integrated numerical visualization teaching (INVT) approach that is based on MATLAB Pdetool, graphical user interface, and Visual Basic Programming. The effectiveness of the INVT method was evaluated in two ways: First, via statistical analyses of the examination grades of two groups (experimental and control groups) of selected undergraduate students from the school of petroleum engineering, after a carefully designed INVT tutorial program was conducted on the experimental group, and finally, by interviewing the selected students to ascertain their psychological wellbeing. The following results were obtained: (1) From the statistical analysis, it was observed that the grade distribution, arithmetic mean, median, and maximum scores of students in the experimental group were relatively higher, suggesting that the INVT approach was effective and suitable for the majority of the students. (2) The interviews revealed that the INVT method provides students with a better classroom experience and help them identify their area of interest. (3) The INVT method will provide other benefits, such as cost-saving, greener classroom​s, decrease carbon footprint, talent and skill enhancement, and achieve sustainable development goals for education. This paper introduces an effective teaching method for environmental and sustainable energy education. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time the INVT method is adopted in teaching a petroleum engineering professional course.

一种本科课程的综合数值可视化教学方法，多孔介质中的流动：可持续工程教育的尝试

多孔介质中流动现象观察的复杂性使得向石油工程专业的本科生教授“多孔介质中的流动”课程变得困难。在这项研究中，我们提出了一种基于 MATLAB Pdetool、图形用户界面和 Visual Basic 编程的综合数值可视化教学 (INVT) 方法。从两个方面评估INVT方法的有效性：首先，通过精心设计的INVT辅导计划，对石油工程学院选定的两组（实验组和对照组）本科生的考试成绩进行统计分析。在实验组，最后，通过采访选定的学生来确定他们的心理健康状况。获得了以下结果：(1)从统计分析可以看出，实验组学生的成绩分布、算术平均数、中位数和最高分相对较高，说明INVT方法是有效的，适合大多数学生。(2) 访谈显示，INVT 方法为学生提供了更好的课堂体验，并帮助他们确定自己感兴趣的领域。(3) INVT 方法将提供其他好处，例如节省成本、更绿色的教室、减少碳足迹、提升人才和技能，并实现教育的可持续发展目标。本文介绍了一种有效的环境与可持续能源教育教学方法。据我们所知，
