Revision as of 11:26, 16 February 2009

Other courses like the one we are designing or that contain components that we like:

  • Scientific Visualization across Disciplines: A Critical Introduction, MIT Open Courseware. The site has tons of readings that look useful for us.
  • PHYS 220:Scientific Modelling at Macquarie University
  • Short annotation, URL
  • Another short annotation, another URL
  • ...

On-line repositories of course materials that contain units we might consider:

  • Computational Science Education Reference Desk (CSERD), a Pathways component of the National Science Digital Library (NSDL), http://www.shodor.org/refdesk/
    • One unit
    • ...

Documents, readings, assignments:

  • Tutorial on Agent Based Modelling (potential reading?) (Nate has the actual pdf) ACM Digital Library
