Thoughts on Interaction – Free Self-Paced Learning Program Guidelines for Collaborative Model Development
Apr 222010
Insight Maker – It’s the pattern that connects!
As we learn we develop patterns and new learning either extends those patterns or creates new patterns because it’s the pattern that connects.
Insight Maker is a online environment for the development and extension of patterns, or models if you prefer. And from these patterns insights are expected, likely, or hoped, to arise.
Insight Maker is an online System Dynamics model building environment that lets you build, share, and analyze system dynamic models all through your web-browser. It is designed to encourage the collaborative development of SD models and aid the dissemination of models and results. Insight Maker is an open-source web-application managed by a non-profit 501(c)(3) corporation.
In brief, Insight Maker is a completely free tool you can use to:
- Build System Dynamics in your web browser
- Run System Dynamics models and see results
- Send model link to others to allow them to view and interact with the SD model
- Embed interactive models in Blogs or other web pages
- Develop custom model user-interfaces (flight simulators) HTML and Javascript
- Collaborate with others on models
Since Insight Maker uses Simgua Server technologies for its SD analysis engine, it supports a wide variety of SD features out of the box.
Insight Maker is currently in open beta. This means it is ready for use but there are still rough edges in the software and it will continue to develop. Over the past few months, Insight Maker has undergone testing during a closed Beta.

Thoughts on Interaction is on online learning program offered as an introduction to modeling and simulation using Insight Maker. This learning program walks one though all the tools within the Insight Maker model building environment. This learning program is completely online and offered at no fee.

Insight Maker is currently in open beta. This means it is ready for use but there are still rough edges in the software and it will continue to develop. Over the past few months, Insight Maker has undergone testing during a closed Beta.

Enjoy the journey!
