Abstract

We describe work on an agent-based model that captures the relationship between the investment that a society makes in education and the outcome in terms of the health of the society's economy. In this work we created an agent-based version of an equation-based model from the economics literature, and explored various settings for parameters that control the behaviors of the agents and their environment.
