Using Vensim, we will show examples of models illustrating concepts such as equilibrium, exponential growth, interdependent cycles, and feedback. We will investigate the mathematics behind the model using a problem involving population growth.=0A=0APrerequisite: "Introduction to Modeling and Simulation as Teaching Tools" session or equivalent.
