2.6) Tutorials


To get started with NetLogo we will work through the three NetLogo Tutorials. They are available in your NetLogo software, click Help + NetLogo User Manual and the manual including the tutorials will open in your browser (although stored locally). The user manual is also available online under the following link (http://ccl.northwestern.edu/netlogo/docs/).

Tutorial #1:. This section will go into more depth about the features that are available while you're exploring the models in the Models Library.

Tutorial #2:. In this section, the focus will start to shift from observing models to manipulating models. You will start to see the inner workings of the models and be able to change how they look.

Tutorial #3:. In this section, you will build your own first model. You will now learn to write procedures that make turtles move, eat, reproduce, and die. You will also learn how to make monitors, sliders, and plots. The model we will build is a simple ecosystem model not unlike Wolf Sheep Predation from Tutorial #1.
