Tutorials (in addition to those in the NetLogo User Manual):

  • Complexity Workshop Tutorials: NetLogo and RePast
    by Owen Densmore
    The NetLogo tutorial material, aimed at “computer-shy scientists and other computer novices,” covers both usage and programming, in the context of a model in which turtles form pairs which grow into large clusters.
  • NetLogo Learning Lab
    from the Mesa State College Center for Agent-Based Modeling
    Includes tutorial "Learning Labs", as well as "Study Guides" which discuss specific topics. Some of the material is adapted from the NetLogo User Manual and other sources, and some is unique to the site.
  • Turtle Epidemic: A NetLogo Simulation Activity
    by Gerald J. Balzano
    A three page tutorial that uses the example of an infection spreading through a population of turtles.
  • Programming Tutorial
    by Christian Jost
    A nine page tutorial based on Tutorial 3 in our User Manual, but using firefly synchronization instead of hill-climbing as the example problem. (It is in English, but procedure and variable names are in French to help the French students for whom it was adapted.)
  • NetLogo 4.0 Quick Guide
    by Luis Izquierdo
    An introduction to programming in NetLogo

Tools:

  • NetLogo Publication Script
    by Steven Brewer
    A script for simplifying the publication and updating of NetLogo models on the web.
