Artificial-Society-Based Classroom Behavior Dynamic Research

This paper introduces the concept and framework of artificial classroom (AC) for the first time by employing artificial societies. Our solution is to use the artificial society approach for modeling artificial classroom. In the artificial society approach, agent-based simulation is used to explore and understand classroom misbehaviors issues. Student agents are selected as three kinds of typical agents and actions of the agents such as communicating, affecting and changing are all designed in detail. Thus, interactions among various agents and between agents and their environment are realized. Using NetLogo multi-agent platform, simulation programs of the model are developed. The simulation results reproduce the emergent pattern in time space and physical space.
