🧪 Teaching Discussion Facilitation Simulation

Interactive 3D model of a classroom discussion circle: student agents volunteer to speak based on confidence and wait time, a facilitator applies cold-calling, redirection and wait-time techniques, and you watch participation equity (Gini coefficient) and the speaking network evolve turn by turn.

This simulation models a classroom discussion as a group of student agents, each with their own confidence and engagement, deciding turn by turn whether to volunteer to speak. A facilitator can wait longer before calling on someone, cold-call the quietest student, or redirect the floor away from a student who has dominated for too long — the three real techniques teachers use to broaden participation. Watch the participation-equity Gini coefficient and the live speaking network evolve as you adjust wait time, cold-call probability and the redirect threshold, and see how each technique trades off discussion pace against how evenly the floor is shared.

⚙ Under the hood

This simulation models the process of facilitating productive discussions. It likely presents scenarios where users must guide conversations, manage disagreements, and encourage collaborative problem-solving.
