Aim: To gain insight into what map and model representations in applied systems methods in IM-1267 can assist identifying and explaining the improvement strategies (leverage points) described by Donella Meadows Leverage Points Systemswiki . The context is social learning for collective action to improve real world events. Information Sources are adapted from IM-920

how the system is supposed to work based on Elmore quote. Then, according to Elmore, what is missing? How might the model be modified to include what Elmore says is missing?

Socio Technical Risk Assessment
Illustrates moving from a Causal Loop Diagram (scroll to the right) to a stocks & flows representation. Press Simulate to see graphs. Note that the "pulse" represents something like eating a donut and the graphs show how the body responds. Which part of the system relates to whether someone may or may not need to take insulin?
