Teaching science. Systems modeler.

Joined February 2012
BioInteractive has a library of models for students to build models with self-check automated feedback. Oh yes, and you can make your own models to have your students “self-check”. #ModeltTeaching #SystemsThinking #SystemDynamics
Models are representations of systems of interrelated ideas or processes. Check out our newest web tool, Model Builder, which allows students to generate and refine a variety of models to show relationships and make predictions about biological phenomena.
