<h2>Using SyncroSim in the post-secondary classroom: A collaboration
with Dr. Priscilla Nyamai</h2>
<p>The following resources can be used to support the publication
“Demystifying ecological modeling: a hands-on activity to acquaint
students with modeling ecosystem responses to natural and anthropogenic
disturbances” <em>(in prep June 2024).</em></p>
<p>This paper describes a framework for post-secondary instructors as
they teach ecological modeling to college level students. The authors
propose that students can enhance their ecological learning objectives,
improve ecological literacy, and gain a deeper understanding of the role
of ecological and anthropogenic perturbations in the environment by
utilizing these hands-on creative modeling tools.</p>
<p>The idea of ecological modeling can be an intimidating subject to
learn (and in some cases teach). For that reason, we have provided this
page as a one-stop-shop for anyone interested in starting this learning
process.</p>
