A few things come to mind with Jason’s request for Fish Banks information.

Fish Banks is a superb opening gambit for a systems class. At our school, Fish Banks has been used in a Government class, Urban Studies, a computer modeling class, and Integrated Science. In each case, of course, the teacher was angling for something particular.

• With what class (and grade) do you use Fish Banks, and in what way is it effective for your purpose?
• Have any of you developed materials (models, forums, et al) to supplement the suggested activities already a part of the simulation?
