The class started off with Jeff asking the students to pair up into groups for a mini project using the skills they learned throughout the week. They were to create a website that had a certain theme with links to models that they had been working on. Ernie set the requirements of having a home page, about page for each group member, team logo, and a possible side project revolving around modeling. They started brainstorming on paper before moving onto the computers. The students worked for quite a while on this project, asking each other for good ideas and improving their websites little by little with consistent progress. After completing their projects, the students presented their work with amazing graphics and animation, very advanced for their level. There were so many themes that they came up with and they seemed to understand modeling very well because they also had excellent AgentSheets and Vensim models with their webpages.
