Jose,

I would like to find out what you are planning to do. One of my visions is to create a true spiral curriculum around system dynamics and modeling that would, in fact, begin in elementary school and go through high school.

SD concepts would not be as difficult to master if students were presented with simple modules that introduced models and modeling early in their education. I will be interested in how you plan to work with such young students.

Linda Sweeney is working with middle school students, and I'm planning to work with secondary preservice teachers, so that represents the full span of a SD spiral curriculum just considering these three efforts!

Did you want to email outside of the System Dynamics K-12 Discussion
listserv?

Ruth
