Collection Name:

On the Cutting Edge: Professional Development for Geoscience Faculty

Collection Description:

The Cutting Edge collection is a set of thematic strands on pedagogical and content topics of interest to geoscience education, broadly construed. Current strands cover teaching biocomplexity, early-career faculty development, petrology, and designing effective courses in the geosciences. The collection supports these strands by providing access to the Cutting Edge workshop materials. Therefore resources include instructional materials, activities, datasets, interfaces and tools, pedagogical resources, course development and management resources, assessment instruments, and primary literature and bibliographies.

Subject(s):

educational theory and practice; quantitative skills; geology and human health; teaching geoscience with visualizations
Earth sciences--Study and teaching (Higher)
Geoscience

The resource's title:

Syllabus of Readings for Complex Adaptive Systems and Agent-Based Computational Economics

A brief description of the resource:

This site is a comprehensive list of reading materials covering the evolving research topics of Complex Adaptive Systems (CAS) and Agent Based Computational Economics (ACE). This continuously updated site is a source of readings for the weekly interdisciplinary Complex Adaptive Systems Workshop at Iowa State University. The reading materials are listed according to category headings. Each listing includes a short summary of the material or simply the reference information. Many natural systems, and increasingly many artificial (man-made) systems as well, are characterized by apparently complex behaviors that arise as the result of nonlinear spatio-temporal interactions among a large number of components or subsystems. Examples of such natural systems include immune systems, nervous systems, multicellular organisms, ecologies, and insect societies. This resource is part of the Biocomplexity collection. http://serc.carleton.edu/biocomplexity/
