Programming and complexity thinking are key skills for approaching 21st century challenges. NetTango Builder is a tool that allows for the creation of blocks-based programming experiences based on complex systems models available in NetLogo Library. Thus, it makes it possible for teachers to create entry level programming experiences capable of introducing students to non-linearity, emergence, uncertainty and other complexity related phenomena.

- Project Overview
- Programming can be daunting. Pretty much everyone who has tried has had the sensation of being lost amidst uncountable lines of code. This is why the block-based paradigm has been develop. It has become a to-go approach for people interested in teaching programming to beginners. The most widely known tool to incorporate that is Scratch, and in this project you will learn how to use the same principles for the creation of NetLogo models.
