Ecobeaker 1.0 / Macintosh Version

Ecobeaker 1.0 is an ecological simulation program, designed for use by students in the classroom. It provides a two-dimensional world in the computer, into which students can place creatures whose behaviors they design. As the creatures eat, reproduce, move around and die, students can observe patterns and compare them against the real world and theoretical predictions. Students can also graph many different statistical measurements from the Ecobeaker 1.0 world, and sample the populations using a variety of common sampling techniques.
