🧪 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.
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.
