Watch your email overflow with Splash! Think what fun kids (and adults) will have using this new visual software to learn and integrate the powerful concepts of systems thinking to use as they they think critically about the world.

Over the years we have found that the gap between the kinesthetic and pencil and paper tools (games, behavior-over-time graphs, causal loop diagrams and connection circles) and stock/flow mapping and modeling has been hard to cross for many students and teachers. We think Splash! will help bridge the gap.

New match this week for the ISDC conference

Both CLE and BTN are at the System Dynamics Conference this week and generous donors have put up a matching challenge for $2,500. We would love to chat with you, so stop on by if you are here in Cambridge. BTN has created a small working prototype of the software, so be sure to check it out.

Splash! is a creative partnership between the CLE and BTN.

If you’re interested in thinking about how to solve mysteries and like the idea of creating computer models and applying them to real-world problems, this book is for you. You can use it independently as a student, work with a group of students, or if you’re a teacher, share it with interested students to complete a guided or independent study.

The CLE is pleased to announce the development of some new system dynamics apps. These simple, fun and engaging apps are ready for use on phones, tablets, or Chromebooks. They are quick to use and create excellent insight for all ages.

These apps are based on the Demo Dozen models created by Jeff Potash and John Heinbokel and developed in a collaboration among the Creative Learning Exchange, the Center for Interdisciplinary Excellence in System Dynamics, and BTN.
