Description: This software contains six laboratory exercises that explore various aspects of population dynamics, including food chains, food webs, carrying capacity, predator-prey relationships, and competition.
Evaluation (10 being highest):Notes: This software is a good supplement to classroom activities involving population dynamics. The student is challenged to think about the material presented, and must type in answers to a number of questions. There is not much room for interacti ve explorations: interaction is limited to "clicking" to start procedures (like population graphs). Information is presented in a linear format. Once a student has completed an activity, their work (answers to questions) can be examined by the teacher.
