Computational Sociology with Agent Based Modeling

Background reading, one or more pointers/documents and a brief synopsis of what's covered in them

  • we don't know

Lecture notes - outline form

  • what data do i need?
  • where do i find data?
    • coordinating multiple data sources
  • how do i encode that data to be useful?
  • what can i discover through visualization?
  • how much data do i need to be useful?
  • examples

Classroom response questions - at least three

Lab activity - materials, process and software

Scheduling - early, late, dependencies on other units, length of unit

Timing

Doesn't matter

Length

One week; but if we find enough material it could be (and would serve well as) two
