Unit

Animal Collective: How group behavior can produce surprising problems—and solutions!

Grades

Students will draw their own social networks, ponder the meaning of complexity and begin to notice unexpected patterns that emerge around them, unnoticed. Through hands-on activities and digital experiments, students will discover how complexity research enriches our daily lives.

Lessons: 2, 3, 4, 5

Throughout the unit, students will see that certain patterns "emerge" at one scale that are not present in the underlying individuals. Particularly in Lesson 2, as students experiment with The Game of Life, they will see patterns when zoomed out on a big grid that are not present when zoomed in.
