The what and why…..
Students (and teachers) are at various places along the road to
developing proficiency with thinking systemically and employing
System Dynamics/Systems Thinking (SD/ST) to address complex issues
and increase understanding. We seek to encourage students and teachers
to develop an understanding of the use of SD/ST tools. We also
know that we need an environment, free from the “winner/loser” constraint,
where kids can receive feedback from other kids as well as from
teachers and professionals well versed in SD/ST. DynamiQUEST creates
a venue for both celebrating what has been done and providing encouragement
for all to continue!
In this spirit, DynamiQUEST was launched
in 2000. DynamiQUEST 2006
will provide a venue for students in Grades 3-12 to showcase
work in which they have employed the tools and method of system
dynamics. This effort has several purposes:
- Provide a way for
students to meet other students and see what
they are doing
- Permit teachers from different schools to see
evidence of student work in ST/SD
- Provide a venue for teachers
and kids to network
- Have some fun and celebrate with kids!
