How Your Students Can Use System Dynamics to Save the World |
|
Author(s):
Andrew Jones |
Subject:
Conference |
|
Public Policy can be improved by the use of system dynamics models. Drew Jones will share some of his experiences using system dynamics models and diagrams to improve public policy, on topics ranging from public health to global climate change. Drew was a student of Dana Meadows’ and co-received the “ASysT Prize” for “a significant accomplishment achieved through the application of Systems Thinking to a problem of US national significance.”

Introduction to Dynamic Modeling |
|
Author(s):
Anne LaVigne |
Subject:
Conference |
|
This session is intended for individuals who have some Systems Thinking background and would like to explore the basics of dynamic modeling software as a way to represent a system. Participants will become familiar with basic icons of STELLA® software (stocks, flows, converters, connectors, and graphs) in order to build simple models that demonstrate linear and compounding growth. They will expand the compounding growth model into a population/resource model and then compare linear and non-linear models. If time allows, participants can also explore simulations of other generic models that are freely available online. Please bring a laptop computer for this session.

Plateaus and Climbing Peaks: Putting Systems Thinking Into Action |
|
Author(s):
Kim Gimblett |
Subject:
Conference |
|
Follow me through my first years’ journey in Systems Thinking. Education can be a powerful means for initiating or reaffirming a person’s sense of responsibility for the environment. To get my students outside and interacting with the beauty that exists around us is a priority in changing their perspectives and can lead to an increased understanding of stewardship and ecosystem sustainability. Connecting the intrinsic human relationship within our youth with nature is complex, but includes establishing the Systems Thinking framework into the observation of natural events as a routine exercise. Harnessing students’ desires to be involved in digital technologies while getting them outdoors leads to new potential. Technology will be our leverage to enable students to participate in social networks and informal learning environments that will encourage new participation in science across the curriculum.

SD/ST Tools for School Leaders: Creating a Culture and Climate for Sustainable SD/ST Integration in Classrooms Using SD/ST Tools |
|
Author(s):
Tim Lucas |
Subject:
Conference |
|
School Leaders are faced with many challenges. Supporting and integrating the use of SD/ST into classrooms to improve learning requires leadership and a school culture that embraces sustainable instructional literacies. This session will explore specific SD/ST tools that building and district school leaders can use to model and create this culture. Over the past decade, we have worked with diverse school leaders translating the work of Doug Reeves, Roland Barth, Michael Fullen, Jim Collins, Daniel Pink, Peter Senge, and others into SD/ST tools and best practices. Join us for an exploration of some of these tools and share your own best practices.
