In this presentation you will learn about design tools and techniques to solve wicked problems, using Systems Thinking.
Systems Thinking looks at the whole of a system rather than focusing on its individual parts, to better understand complex phenomena. Systems Thinking contrasts with analytic thinking: you solve problems by going deeper, by looking at the greater whole of a system and the relations between its elements, rather than solving individual problems in a linear way via simple cause and effect explanations.
You can apply Systems Thinking principles in different situations: to understand how large organisations function and design for the enterprise (e.g. when you are trying to revamp a large intranet), but also to solve social problems and issues (e.g. unemployment with disadvantaged youth or mobility in larger cities). So basically whenever there is complexity and conflict (of interest) in your project, Systems Thinking will be helpful.
After an introduction to Systems Thinking and its core concepts, we will first explain and practice a few techniques that you as a designer can apply to better understand complex systems, for example creating a System Map and drawing Connection Circles. In the second part of the workshop, we will introduce techniques that help you shape solutions, for example using Paradoxical Thinking for ideation and writing ‘What-if’ Scenarios.
Presented at EuroIA 2015 with Koen Peters.
A system is a network of interdependent components that work together to try to accomplish the aim of the system. A system must have an aim. Without an aim, there is no system. The aim of the system must be clear to everyone in the system.
But what does it all mean really and how does it apply to our businesses? What does it take to have a systems thinking or holistic view and approach?
In this presentation, we'll take a look at systems thinking, how we can get into this mindset and how it is used in the real world. With some interactive exercises, historical and present examples we hope this session will leave you with an understanding of systems thinking and its many benefits.
Systems thinking is perhaps one of the most critical tools in handling the complexity in coping challenges we are facing now and in the coming decades. This is a brief introduction to the basic concepts in System Thinking. It is defined and organized in a way that can provide those basics for every audience. I hope you find it helpful!

System Thinking: Design Tools to Drive Innovation Processes Roberta Tassi
The increasing complexity of the world around us raises new challenges for designers, who are called to build cohesive experiences across broad ecosystems of products and services. Dealing with innovation and highly complex services, involving a large number of actors and many different channels, requires the adoption of new skills and techniques, that enable a more effective collaboration with all the stakeholders involved and support the dialogue around articulated systems and large amount of information.
Looking at the theory, Service Design Tools (www.servicedesigntools.org) is a first comprehensive repository of methods and examples that could orientate a designer - or any other professional - approaching the challenges of designing services, to help identifying the right method according to the step of the process, the type of participants and the kind of information that need to be discussed. Jumping to the practice, the power of adopting a systemic approach and shaping tools and frameworks that can re-order and re-distribute knowledge within multifaceted teams to drive innovation processes has changed the way in which highly complex services are conceived and developed across segments - from healthcare to financial -.
The ambition now is to see this evolving more and more into the way societal problems with large scale impact are addressed - bringing the benefit of system thinking into social innovation processes and organisation changes.

Chaos theory is a mathematical field of study which states that non-linear dynamical systems
that are seemingly random are actually deterministic from much simpler equations. The
phenomenon of Chaos theory was introduced to the modern world by Edward Lorenz in 1972
with conceptualization of ‘Butterfly Effect’. As chaos theory was developed by inputs of
various mathematicians and scientists, it found applications in a large number of scientific
fields.
The purpose of the project is the interpretation of chaos theory which is not as familiar as
other theories. Everything in the universe is in some way or the other under control of Chaos
or product of Chaos. Every motion, behavior or tendency can be explained by Chaos Theory.
The prime objective of it is the illustration of Chaos Theory and Chaotic behavior.
This project includes origin, history, fields of application, real life application and limitations
of Chaos Theory. It explores understanding complexity and dynamics of Chaos.

Design System as a Product - Maria Elena Duenias, Esther Butcher
Design systems are a great example where web development and design meet. You can find innumerable resources on the internet, books and conferences on how to build them, and how they are exactly what your organization needs. But, building one requires a lot more than following a recipe. In this talk we are going to discuss how to build a design system as an internal product, and how it evolves to become what the users need.

Shared Practice—Role of Business Information Systems
Note: This Discussion has slightly different due dates than what is typical for this program. Be mindful of this as you post and respond in the Discussion. Your post is due on Day 7 and your Response is due on Day 3 of Week 2.
As a manager, it is critical for you to understand the types of business information systems available to support business operations, management, and strategy. As of 2013, these include, but are certainly not limited to the following:
· Supply Chain Management (SCM)
· Accounting Information System
· Customer Relationship Management (CRM)
· Decision Support Systems (DSS)
· Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP)
· Human Resource Management
These types of systems support critical business functions and operations that every organization must manage. The effective manager understands the purpose of these types of systems and how they can be best used to manage the organization's data and information.
In this Discussion, you will share your knowledge and findings related to business information systems and the role they play in your organization. You will also consider your colleagues' experiences to explore additional ways business information systems might be applied in your colleagues' organizations, or an organization with which you are familiar.
By Day 7
· Describe two or three of the more important technologies or business information systems used in your organization, or in one with which you are familiar.
· Discuss two examples of how these business information systems are affecting the organization you selected. Be sure to discuss how individual behaviors and organizational or individual processes are changing and what you can learn from the issues encountered.
· Summarize what you have learned about the importance of business information systems and why managers need to understand how systems can be used to the organization's advantage.
You should find and use at least one additional current article from a credible resource, either from the Walden Library or the Internet. Please be specific, and remember to use citations and references as necessary.
General Guidance: Your initial Discussion post, due by Day 7, will typically be 3–4 paragraphs in length as a general expectation/estimate. Refer to the rubric for the Week 1 Discussion for grading elements and criteria. Your Instructor will use the rubric to assess your work.
Week 2
By Day 3
In your Week 1 Discussion you described how business information systems have been applied in an organization with which you are familiar. Read through your colleagues' posts and by Day 3 (Week 2), respond to two of your colleagues in one or more of the following ways:
· Examine how the business information systems described by your colleague could be or are being used by your organization. Offer additional ways either organization might take advantage of these systems.
· Examine how the b ...

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

2. INTRODUCTION TO SYSTEM THINKING
Systems thinking utilizes habits, tools and
concepts to develop an understanding of
the interdependent structures of dynamic
systems. When individuals have a better
understanding of systems, they are better
able to identify the leverage points that
lead to desired outcomes.
Systems thinking is a management discipline
that concerns an understanding of a system
by examining the linkages and interactions
between the components that comprise
the entirety of that defined system.

In Bangalore Parthenon plants caused Asthma for many.Tourists complained
about it and stopped coming to Banglore. Govt. asked scientists for a solution.
They said a type of beetle loves eating Parthenon and so may be brought in
plenty and let it live. As expected beetles ate all the plants in a months time.
After that it wanted food for living and so went to near by fields and ate Sun
Flower !! Farmers were affected. Caused major embarrassment to the Govt.
