Teaching Resources for BNS

Teaching resources for Behavioral Network Science currently include code for working through the first three chapters of the book, “A Brief Guide to Network Science,” with a classroom, using a network the students can rapidly build making connections among themselves.

This starts by having the classroom develop an affiliation network by filling out a shared online google sheet. You can send students the link, change the names in the first column to those of your students, and change the features or affiliations in the first row to things that your students are interested in.

You can run the RMarkdown file linked below in RStudio. It contains a link to a Google sheet you can use as an example. The code in the file demonstrates all the content with your classroom network as the primary example.

The link to the code is here

A link to the code for reproducing all the figures and simulations in the book can be found on the home page for the book.
