Towards teaching on managing complexity using complexity management tools

Towards teaching on managing complexity using complexity management tools This paper explains the design of the course: "Introduction to Systems Thinking". This design uses Complexity Management tools from Organisational Cybernetics in order to teach Systems Thinking in general, and Organisational Cybernetics to Manage Complexity in particular. This design attempts to articulate theories, tools, and practices of systems thinking in a context in which students can develop their autonomy. The implementation of this design is a game, which models a social system. In this way, students learn how to make decisions by themselves in a complex environment. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png International Journal of Applied Systemic Studies Inderscience Publishers

Abstract

This paper explains the design of the course: "Introduction to Systems Thinking". This design uses Complexity Management tools from Organisational Cybernetics in order to teach Systems Thinking in general, and Organisational Cybernetics to Manage Complexity in particular. This design attempts to articulate theories, tools, and practices of systems thinking in a context in which students can develop their autonomy. The implementation of this design is a game, which models a social system. In this way, students learn how to make decisions by themselves in a complex environment.
