System Thinking and Model Building

While in Kenya we made a big system of how different issues and ideas of the school today relate to each other. The last two days we have been testing how the tools in our toolbox can affect that system. By doing this we hope to find out if any of the tools are more important than others at St. Joseph Secondary School. we also built a new model of the school since the ones we did in Kenya were too big to bring home on the airplane. Next week we will use the model in a design workshop where we try to find good solutions for how the school yard at St. Joseph can look in the future.
