Materials for constructing an initial causal map relating observable features of fossil hominin skulls, behaviors, and environmental conditions
TeachingBase Type: Causal map
How can we understand the causal relationships between goals, behaviors, and outcomes?
In this lesson, students analyze a select real-world social-ecological system by looking at factors of the resource(s) and ecosystem, resource user behaviors, and governance,
Causal mapping helps us reflect on the interdependent relationships between agents and entities within complex systems.
A comparative behavioral research experiment exploring the abilities of chimpanzees and of children to cooperate around a shared resource.
This model introduces the concept of resource use efficiency into the evolution of resource use behavior.
This NetLogo model lets students explore how competition for resources can affect the evolution of a population and can result in resource overuse. This
This NetLogo model builds on the model of Two Foresters. In this model, agents reproduce based on the amount of resources that they harvest.
An interactive introduction into concepts of ecology, behavioral ecology, and sustainability with a computer simulation of a simple social-ecological system.
