Documenting and Presenting Your Model
Lesson 5, page 10 of 15
A model that is not easily explained is a model that is not believed or used. GoldSim is designed to let you effectively document, explain, and present your model:
You can add text in any font or color, such as the title and description shown here. GoldSim provides drawing tools you can use to add text, lines, boxes (such as the one surrounding the four elements The basic building blocks with which a GoldSim model is constructed. Each element represents a feature, pararamer, process or event in the model. on the left) and other graphical objects. Hyperlink objects, such as the one labeled "Learn More" above, can link directly to a separate document or a web site. You can also import graphics, such as logos (as seen here) or maps.
By using these presentation capabilities and organizing your model in a logical, hierarchical manner, it can readily be presented and explained at an appropriate level of detail to multiple target audiences.
