Question 4.2

What could be improved about each modeling system (minimum 1 improvement each)?

Question 4.3

Optional: Which type of model did you find most useful and why?

Question 4.4

Talk about the models with your classmates: what is the general consensus about the most useful modeling system we could use? What is the biggest improvement that could be made (to any)?
