Subject:
Conference |
| |
This workshop examines both the practical and philosophical aspects that contribute to a dynamic, learner-centered classroom. We will look at teaching and learning from several points of view, using a variety of systems tools. In this fast-paced, hands-on introductory session, educators will develop their understanding of systems by using some of the key tools of systems thinking, system dynamics, and organizational learning. Explore how behavior-over-time graphs, iceberg diagrams, stock and flow diagrams, connection circles, and causal loop diagrams can be applied to understand and solve complex problems in an educational setting.

| Teaching Humanities Using Systems Tools |
|

Author(s):
Jeff Potash, Jason O'Neil-Willoughby, & Beth Olesen |
Subject:
Conference |
| |
In this workshop, we will explore how different system tools offers opportunities for students to look for patterns in human history and to ask deeper and more thoughtful questions relating to the causes and connections underlying these patterns. Building systems structures (causal loops, connection circles, models) uniquely empowers students to actively explore “what ifs” in ways that bridge past, present, and future. |

Mass Audubon’s Drumlin Farm Wildlife Sanctuary strives to foster connections between people, land, and wildlife in ways that allow our visitors to develop and act on their own conservation ethic. We have recently introduced system dynamics concepts to effectively communicate the interdependencies present in sustainable farming practices and to develop Systems Thinking abilities in our preschool and K-5 program participants. The session will provide an overview of our process for integrating Systems Thinking in our education programs as well as curricular tools developed to demonstrate the interconnections between farming, soil health, and the larger environmental system.

| Using Systems Thinking to Develop Literacy Skills |
|

Author(s):
Brian Bindschadler |
Subject:
Conference |
| |
In this session, participants will explore various ways to use systems tools to increase deep thinking and literacy in the classroom. We will focus on developing the Habits of a Systems Thinker using the Iceberg Visual, Behavior-Over-Time Graphs, and Stock-Flow diagrams. These tools can be used in any level classroom—from preschool through high school—and beyond. Each tool will be “unpacked” with explanations and examples, and participants will have opportunities to develop their own applications for these powerful literacy tools. |
