Colleagues,

SDR Volume 9, Number 2 (Summer, 1993) devoted an entire issue to education. Among the articles is:

A proposed sequence for developing systems thinking in a grades 4-12 curriculum by Frank Draper

Systems thinking: critical thinking skills for the 1990s and beyond by Barry Richmond

System dynamics as an organizing framework for pre-college education by Jay W. Forrester


Some of the papers may be covering old ground, since improved upon. On
the other hand, I am an advocate of returning to basics and the existing
literature to prevent reinventing wheels (as intellectually satisfying
though that may be).

Regards,

Bill Braun
