Virtual Laboratory

The Virtual Laboratory consists of open-source simulation programs illustrating complex systems ideas, theories, and tools, accompanied by curricula designed for both teachers and independent learners. The Virtual Laboratory is organized into topics, each of which contains a laboratory guide (in PDF format) and a series of simulation models written in the Netlogo language. These require the free Netlogo platform, which can be downloaded from http://ccl.northwestern.edu/netlogo/ .  The current version of NetLogo may not support all of the Virtual Laboratory models - please download the prior version of NetLogo here: https://ccl.northwestern.edu/netlogo/download.shtml while we work to update the models.
