Abstract
To teach the computational science necessary to prepare STEM students for positions in both research and industry, faculty need HPC resources specifically tailored for their classrooms. Scholar was developed as a large-scale computing tool that faculty can use in their classrooms to teach HPC as well as scientific principles and experimentation. In this paper, we discuss the pedagogical need for a campus-wide HPC teaching resource and outline how such a resource was implemented at Purdue University.
