Making System Dynamics Cool? Using Hot Testing & Teaching Cases

نویسنده

  • Erik Pruyt
چکیده

This paper deals with the use of ‘hot’ real-world cases for both testing and teaching purposes such as in the Introductory System Dynamics course at Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands. The paper starts with a brief overview of the System Dynamics curriculum. Then the problem-oriented teaching and testing approach is explained, followed by a presentation and discussion of several examples of ‘hot’ cases. The main goal of presenting the use of ‘hot’ testing/teaching cases is to spur other System Dynamics lecturers on to doing the same, and to start up a small network for exchanging the ‘hottest’ cases.

A hot/cool-system analysis of delay of gratification: dynamics of willpower.

A cool, cognitive "know" system and a hot, emotional "go" system are postulated. The cool system is cognitive, emotionally neutral, contemplative, flexible, integrated, coherent, spatiotemporal, slow, episodic, and strate...

Simulations of Hot Bubbles in the Icm

We review the general properties of the intracluster medium (ICM) in clusters that host a cooling flow, and in particular the effects on the ICM of the injection of hot plasma by a powerful active galactic nucleus (AGN). It is observed that, in some cases, the hot plasma produces cavities in the ICM that finally detach and rise, perhaps buoyantly. The gas dynamics induced by the rising bubbles ...
