I'm the lead developer of EdGCM (http://edgcm.columbia.edu), a NASA Global Climate Model (GCM) that has been ported to Windows/Mac and wrapped in a graphical interface. Our software is targeted to high school and undergrad students, and we have a host of materials for educators on our website.

Ken,
I used EdGCM as a significant part of a senior-undergrad level NWP class last year. Among other things I had the students compare EdGCM runs to the scenarios projected in the IPCC Summary for Policymakers, which came out during the class. I highly encourage anyone teaching at the high school / undergrad level to give EdGCM a spin.

Hi, even I've learned about GCM, General Circulation Models (GCMs) are a class of computer-driven models for weather forecasting, understanding climate and projecting climate change, where they are commonly called Global Climate Models.
I think, you are the only person who used it properly. Congrats mate.
