We present the Elements project, a lightweight, open-source, computationalscience and computer graphics (CG) framework, tailored for educational needs,that offers, for the first time, the advantages of an Entity-Component-System(ECS) along with the rapid prototyping convenience of a Scenegraph-basedpythonic framework. This novelty allows advances in the teaching of CG: fromheterogeneous directed acyclic graphs and depth-first traversals, to animation,skinning, geometric algebra and shader-based components rendered via uniquesystems all the way to their representation as graph neural networks for 3Dscientific visualization. Taking advantage of the unique ECS in a a Scenegraphunderlying system, this project aims to bridge CG curricula and modern gameengines (MGEs), that are based on the same approach but often present thesenotions in a black-box approach. It is designed to actively utilize softwaredesign patterns, under an extensible open-source approach. Although Elementsprovides a modern (i.e., shader-based as opposed to fixed-function OpenGL),simple to program approach with Jupyter notebooks and unit-tests, its CGpipeline is not black-box, exposing for teaching for the first time uniquechallenging scientific, visual and neural computing concepts.
