  • New Model Request - Penguins affected by heat

    Posted June 20, 2019 by kpatcox

    Forum

    I will be working with my students this next year on how to solve realistic problems in the world. I am looking for a model that demonstrates the need for penguins to have interventions to stay out of the heat and protected from starving predators. Students will have to see the model and then create a solution to help the penguins. 

  • Is it possible to setup ID of agents to zero

    I'm trying to create a game with a few balls. At the beginning are created 3 balls with ID 1,2,3 and after it a lot of players.

    The first time everything is O'K but then every new program call spawns agents with new numbers. As if the old ID numbers are stored in the system. Is it possible to delete agents and history with their ID ?

  • 2nd Introductory Module

    Several teachers requested a 2nd (or even 3rd) introductory module they could use with students in pairing with their content module.  

    In Virginia, Alana and her team have done Module 1 and a content module in 7th grade, and then Molly continues with them in 8th grade.  They want more modules and additional intro ones to get the students re-familiarized with the concepts, CAS, computational thinking,  and StarLogo Nova without having to repeat Module 1.

    Choose one of the content-area modules (Module 2, 3, or 4) and brainstorm potential student modifications for the base model based on difficulty/time. Please include:

    I would like to have students code a system that represents how body systems use feedback loops to maintain homeostasis/how disease represents a flaw in these loops. I am a Living Environment teacher but have very basic programming skills. Would anyone be interested in helping me develop this? Thank you! 

  • Pages, The World, Everyone, and Turtle

    I have been able to make the projects in module 1 by following videos and power point instructions, but I feel like I need a deeper understanding.  I am a little confused about setting up a model.  I don't understand what goes on each page.  Why is create turles of "The World" instead of "Turtle" and what is "Everyone" for?

    I have a student who is spending all of his free time at home creating programs on star logo nova.  He asked the following question "I have looked everywhere on google but I cant find how to make the breeds follow my mouse. can you ask star logo nova for me. Is there a way to make agents follow another agent?
