New Mexico Computer Science for All

Learning Objective: Students explore agent-agent interactions by creating an epidemic model. Each student has an opportunity to examine the spread of disease through an agent population using a simplistic model. Then the possible affects of recuperation, hospitals or doctors and immunity on the spread of disease can be examined.

While the coding portion of the module isn't due until the end of the module, it is always best to review the programming challenges and extensions at the beginning of the week, ask questions about them and start coding.
