| description: | The Blackwood Project will attempt to recreate a virtual 19th century Western town intended to teach American History and Microeconomics. This town will be populated with software agents to simulate an economic environment, and with software tutors to support our educational strategies. The system will be hosted on the Internet and will provide opportunities for research into distance education, intelligent agents, economic simulation, and assessment of pedagogical approaches. |
