The learner experience

A little curiosity. A lasting understanding.

Restore a fictional island habitat by adjusting resources and conservation actions. Learners predict a consequence before advancing each modelled season, then revise their explanation using observations.

Imagine this moment

One intervention sends visible changes through several connected populations.

Learning & evidence

The learning objective

Predict plausible direct and indirect effects of changes in a food web.

What understanding looks like

Predictions, causal chains, and explanations of unintended effects on a new scenario.

Adaptation

Different starting points. A shared objective.

Begin with a three-species chain; extend to competing explanations in a larger web.
