| 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.

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.”

| Getting Insight about Environmental Issues by Practicing Causal Loops |
|
|
Author(s):
Zerrin Doganca |
Subject:
Conference |
| |
The session will include two lesson plans, two stories addressing a systems approach in different contexts, exercises of causal loop diagrams related to issues in the stories, and a discussion about the results obtained in an experimental design with fifth grade Turkish students. The context of the session is based largely on environmental issues like conservation of species and effect of pesticides on living organisms. This study has been applied to students with no experience in system dynamics. Hence, participants at all levels will be welcome to this session.

| Expanding Your Tool Kit: Developing Critical Thinking Skills with System Dynamics |
|
|
Author(s):
Torrey McMillan |
Subject:
Conference |
| |
In this workshop, appropriate for K-12 teachers or administrators with little to no background in Systems Thinking, we will explore the use of Systems Thinking as an analytical tool to promote complex thinking, research skills, and communication. We will review a range of assignments and applications of Systems Thinking, particularly in the context of global sustainability issues such as poverty, economic development, climate change, and ecosystem health. Participants will practice Systems Thinking, including construction and interpretation of behavior-over-time graphs and causal loop diagrams.
