What's Represented?

These exercises ask the learner to identify abstractions in the computer model as compared to a diagram or image of a natural phenomenon.

CS in Science Module 5: Greenhouse Gases slide presentation

This slide presentation can be used for CS in Science Module 5: Greenhouse Gases. Teachers can download and modify this presentation for classroom use. Also note that this presentation was specifically developed for use in a module exploring climate change and water, but the first several slides include good general information.

Scientific Practices and Computational Thinking in Modeling & Simulation

This document is a handout used to reflect on the scientific practices and computational thinking involved in a Project GUTS module or lesson.

Elementary School Water Cycle overlay module - Water as a Shared Resource

This is an overlay for a 5th grade that adds computational thinking, modeling and simulation on top of an existing Water Cycle lesson.

Bloques de código para modelo de cambio climático

Es una hoja de referencia con los bloques de código necesarios para el modelo de cambio climático. Se explica bloque por bloque qué función cumple cada estructura en cada pestaña de la programación con StarLogo NOVA.

Introducción al modelado del clima

Documento base como introducción al modelado del clima. Habla sobre el sistema climático global como un sistema dinámico complejo; la diferencia entre tiempo y clima; los ciclos de retroalimentación en el sistema climático global, etc.
Fue extraído de “Mathematics of Climate Change: A new discipline for an uncertain century” una publicación del Instituto de Investigación en Ciencias Matemáticas. Berkeley, CA 2007 y traducido al español.

Geothermal Energy for StarLogo Nova

This unit was developed as a Project GUTS after-school club unit. Students learn about geology topics relating to hot springs with mineral deposits, as well as geothermal energy with hot water being heated underground and rising to the surface. Students decode a base model and add their own enhancements.

Climate change and agriculture for StarLogo Nova

Climate change is a significant topic today, and this unit examines some causes of climate change, discusses feedback loops that are important to climate change, analyzes related graphs and considers climate change in New Mexico as it relates to food security.
