How Systems Thinking Equips Students for a Complex World

As the events of the past year demonstrate, our world is evolving faster than it has before. In the face of this changing environment, it is becoming ever more apparent that our existing industrial age reductionist approach to education is not properly equipping students for such a world. Introducing systems thinking will help students prepare for a complex future.
In this 1-hour discussion hosted by the Si NYC hub, we have invited Dr. Laura and Derek Cabrera to share their experience and thoughts on integrating Systems Thinking into primary education. They are renowned systems thinking scientists who serve on the faculty of Cornell University and founded the Cabrera Research Lab.

I work in a school and this way of thinking will not be thought. People have to much ego to change or learn new things. The only thing that can change this is remote learning.
