Waters Foundation
for Systems Thinking and Dynamic Modeling in K-12 Schools
A Systems Thinking and Dynamic Modeling site designed to provide
educators with background information, examples, and guidance
in the use of systems thinking and dynamic modeling in K-12
education. The work shared here was generated by educators
supported by Waters Foundation K-12 Educational Partnerships
Center for Interdisciplinary Excellence in System Dynamics,
LLP (CIESD)
John Heinbokel and Jeff Potash of CIESD continue many of
the educational outreach activities they began with the Waters
Center at Trinity College. Please investigate the MSST
and Demo Dozen Materials available on this site for an
example of the instructional materials CIESD has created.
Please contact (info@ciesd.org)

materials. You are also invited to explore CIESD’s
web site (http://www.ciesd.org), which provides a variety
of materials and discussions relevant to educators.
