Topics covered are complex adaptive systems, loops, and models vs. the real world.
Exit Slip:
Time for twos! List two ways that computer models are useful. List two characteristics of complex adaptive systems.

My exit slip:
I am looking at Module 4 Lesson 3. The students are predicting what will happen if they change the amount of copper and/or silver nitrate.
The students would document how much silver nitrate is needed to completely replace the copper strip. I want them to try to identify the minimum amount of silver nitrate. (They should find that the amount of silver nitrate needed is twice the amount of copper atoms. This is a double replacement reaction)
Example
Module 3 Day 1
Topics covered are complex adaptive systems, modelling and simulations, population growth, predation, and carrying capacity of an ecosystem
Exit Slip
Create a food chain based on the trophic levels in the computer simulation. Make sure you show the flow of energy within the ecosystem properly.
Give me two ways that the simulation has helped to show the balance in the ecosystems.
How is this a complex adaptive system?

Module 2 Lesson 5
Covers extensions to water pump model.
Exit Slip Idea: Explain how water as a resource is a complex adaptive system. Give one example of an abstraction you are using in your model modification.

Module 2 Lesson 2
Topics Covered: Inspecting and decoding the water model
Exit Slip:
List two ways the water pump model matches the real world
List tow ways the water pump mode DOES NOT match the real world

Module 2 Day 3
Topics: Running experiments
Exit Slip:
How does adding a 2nd pump affect the available water?
How does the distance between pumps affect the available water?
Steven Kaestner
With module 3 lesson one paper catchers. Students can be asked to identify what limiting factor(s) affected the carrying capacity of the ecosystem. Hopefully this could be done electronically on google classroom.
I also had the students identify how important the amount of water is in the experiment. In order for hydrated copper to be produced...
I had students identify one real world problem that could be demonstrated/tested through a computer model and one issue that is not reflected in the model 3 rabbits and wolves initial model.
