Welcome to November, everyone! We are two-ninth's of the way through the school year.

Great thanks to Niall for his question and his gathering the list. They are here on a convenient Teacher Resource Page.

Some of these titles are clearly for teachers and some, appropriately excerpted, work for students. I am wondering if we might drill down a bit here. What do you ask your students to read? I would really like to compile a teacher and student reading list that also considers experience with system dynamics.

If you would, please distinguish grade level and SD experience. So, for instance, my second semester 11th and 12th graders might read a condensed version of Garret Hardin's "Tragedy of the Commons." (I really did that; they found it tough going.)
