Abstract

Purpose . This article summarizes the nine contributions to the symposium on system dynamics . The goal of the symposium is to investigate how research in system dynamics is contributing to simulation-gaming, and how the more general field of simulation-gaming is influencing work in system dynamics. Summary of articles . We summarize the nine contributions. They include five articles on basic research in learning and teaching principles for system dynamics, three articles on interactive learning environments , and a final critical reflection article which summarizes the other eight and suggests future research needs. Conclusion . The main problem still to be addressed is improvement in and measurement of learning and performance .
