how to see the full videos for this course?
As a 22-year veteran of a nonprofit company that produces free products and services to the general public, this lesson was definitely enough of a prompt to hit the Subscribe button. Thanks! I've always enjoyed classes from professors who are at once knowledgeable, humble ("I can't teach you anything!"), and humorously self-effacing.
Excellent class by Professor J. Sterman!
Elected 7 times BEST PROFESSOR by MIT Alumni
what a class.. whan an introduction class.. what a professor!!! amazing!
We need all lectures for this module, MIT ! ☺
I really like this class, thanks for posting!
System dynamics with John Stearman was one of the best courses I took in MIT.
What were the assignments like?
I wonder if complex growth figures for complex systems was touched. www.researchgate.net/publication/270817856_Imaginary_Interest_Rates_and_Complex_Net_Present_Value_Calculus_in_Energy_Economics An imaginary growth rate is basically describing a cycle, an oscillation. Cycles are sustainable, whereas exponential growth (real number) is not sustainable in a finite world.
Fascinating summary of system dynamics.
I love the way you break complex systems down. Good stuff!
It is a pity there is no real Mooc or free online course to learn System Dynamics. It is still such a closed community.
There is Introduction to System Dynamics on MIT OCW
Do you have link. I can not find it anywhere by searching
Are you looking for videos? They're unlikely to be online. But if you are looking for an introduction to the tools and techniques of SD, please check course number 15.871 and 15.872 on MIT OCW (ocw.mit.edu/courses/sloan-school-of-management/). These are the two courses that make up one semester of introductory System Dynamics at MIT.
Hope that helps! Let me know if you have any more questions.
I would recomend www.complexityexplorer.org/courses , their courses are always good!
sepiatone93 thanks! The last week I knew about Vensim and I “felt in love”... believe me, I’ll enjoy that MIT courses about systems dynamics.
His opening comments about teaching vs learning were music to my earsm
very good course....I need more cource specially for my research
I would've loved this class.
Well this makes me want to go to MIT
Starts 2:44
I gotta get into MIT. BTW, most people aren't natural systems thinkers. They see a tiny part of the system and make a ton of assumptions based on their own biases, faulty beliefs, and past experience (this is a big one). It's interesting that he says models are always wrong. I think part of that is because you cannot accurately model 'reality.' But it is possible to perceive it as objectively as humanly possible (think metacognition, which means you can identify the limits of your own perception --
kind of paradoxical) and intuitively implement the most effective solution. Most exciting part about this, it goes far beyond business.
The full quote is "All models are wrong, but some models are useful". The challenge of course is to come up with a "useful" model (of whatever system one is trying to analyze).
@@RAJAT6555 I don't think you can say: "the more nonlinear it gets" because either it is linear or it is not linear. If it is linear then you can rather easily solve the dynamics and find a controller that keeps the system in a stable state. The small signal stability (=linearized around the working point) - and also large signal stabiliy are guaranteed and you avoid these overshoot and collapse scenarios or resonance catastrophies.
understandable & interesting lecture.
Brilliant lecture.You are a good teacher but rare breed.
"...all models are wrong, model is not the real system, only the reality is the reality.." This is gold. I remember a closely similar conclusion from an interview with David Bohm and many others, also with Krishnamurti.
You might like this one too: “All models are wrong; some models are useful” - Edwards Deming
brilliant. I love it so much
Such an insightful lecture . Where r other lectures ? I need it badly
Only the introduction to the course was recorded. Any other course materials we do have, can be found on MIT OpenCourseWare at: ocw.mit.edu/15-871F13. Best wishes on your studies!
This is a timely reminder and thought stimulator as to what the world is facing today.
Alright, professor, I'm hooked. Off to the MIT page 🙂
Wonderful intro
I was wondering why he was considering the book heavy and there were no exams, then I noticed this is business system dynamics and not engineering.
It makes sense now
i want a teacher like him
I wish I could bop around such guys more in my life! wait a second! no excuses... lets DO IT.... !!!! 10000%%%%%
sucha great lecture
Well ,system dynamic issue is very important for decision makers anytime , this presentation was very useful for me.
The world would be a better place if has more professors like him.
And it would be even better if we could access the rest of the lecture videos.
@@farzanr.nobakht3022 I have tried and I could not find them anywhere.
is this like a general intro to system dynamics course or is it related to engineering college?
Teacher,
What papers can I associate with the study of the book about business dynamics?
Google Scholar might be able to help
cool idea for a class
Learning is kinda heuristic process, going round in circles, a very short version said in this video better known as Kuhn Cycle and its a picture.
Clearly discussed
I think the diagram early in the session is wrong (at 7 mins 47 or so) - the linear movement from 'identify problem' through a few stages to 'implement' should not be labeled 'open loop' . It is a closed loop. Is this right?
That's the point he is making I think, it's an open loop considering that there is no iteration to it
So there's tasty food, 2 inches from your face, you can smell it, you can feel its temperature and right when you're about to take a bite, the video ends and there are no more lectures. =)
I wish I would have seen systems and automation with him :o
16:26 The basic assumption seems to be the perfect counter-measure to the Pygmalion effect.
I want to know is there any connection between system dynamics and data science ?
It felt more like coming to a motivational session 😄
course book title?
could you help me to get , author and Title (That the teacher has mentioned) the white one. please.
The required text is: Sterman, J. Business Dynamics: Systems Thinking and Modeling for a Complex World. McGraw-Hill / Irwin, 2000. ISBN: 9780072389159. (www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/007238915X/ref=nosim/mitopencourse-20) See the course on MIT OpenCourseWare for more information and materials at ocw.mit.edu/15-871F13.
And it is posible to get the Syllabus to the lectures order and recommendations?
Where are the other video sessions of this good course?
No other videos were recorded for this course. Only the course introduction was recorded.
@@mitocw Why you did not record all his session? Can you make it again? His teaching quality is awesome. Maybe put it on edx.
It's mainly an issue of limited resources. We have a limited budget and people power to work on courses for MIT OpenCourseWare publication. We only select a limited number of courses to be fully recorded during any given semester. There are many variables on the priority: is it by a good professor who is retiring and it's the last lecture he's going to give? Is it a course in badly need of an update? Is it on a timely issue that would be good to publish on (e.g. pandemics). Etc. Etc.
@@mitocw You are the richest university in the world. You have ressources.
MIT has funded MIT OpenCourseWare for tens of millions of dollars ($1.5 - 2 million a year for almost 20 years). Within that we have to make choices on what we can do. Video is some of the most expense content we can do. We can only provide full video for a limited number of courses. Keep in mind, MIT OpenCourseWare is not just a CZcams channel. We have materials for over 2400 courses at ocw.mit.edu - textbooks, exams, lecture notes, problems sets, and more. If you want to fund the capture of a course, contact us through the feedback form. If you want donate to our mission, visit ocw.mit.edu and use the donate form.
Count Dooku started teaching at MIT
How many people who are listening to this lecture and expect that their BOSSES, for once...just once for god sake, listen to what prof Sterman said???
I bought the textbook after reading it referenced in a different book. I've read most of it.
Hi, whats the name or title of the book?
What’s the name of the book
I wish I had access to the full course. I'm a PhD student and all I ever came across in my university was reductionist approaches. Because of the subject I study the best methodology in my use case is systems dynamics. I'm really struggling to learn it because I can't find a well structured guide to take you through.
We don't have any more videos for this course but we do have some course materials. To see the materials visit MIT OpenCourseWare at: ocw.mit.edu/15-871F13. Best wishes on your studies!
@@mitocw thank you very much. I've already looked it up and the assignments will help me practice.
When's the next lecture ?
id guess there isn't one
i still couldn't find the playlist it belongs @@brandomiranda6703
13:25 it really bothers me there are 2 different types of quotes in this image
Carter Cole that's an interesting observation 😆
So where's the course..?
The course materials are available on MIT OpenCourseWare at: ocw.mit.edu/15-871F13. The introduction was the only video recorded for this course. Best wishes on your studies!
So this is system dynamics for business? I'm trying to find some of pure mathematics
What do you mean by "some of pure mathematics"? Are you more interested in the modeling aspect? If so this is a good book - Analytical Methods For Dynamic Modelers by Rahmandad, Oliva and Osgood.
wow thanks a lot!
Which is the name of the textbook?
Sterman, J. Business Dynamics: Systems Thinking and Modeling for a Complex World. McGraw-Hill / Irwin, 2000. ISBN: 9780072389159. See ocw.mit.edu/15-871F13 for more info. Best wishes on your studies!
So I guess I am getting MIT education straight from my garage. Thanks ARPA ((Pun intended))
i think i just died and went to heaven
I like that Guy. He should be a preacher!
i didn't understand much but thank you
Everyone please contribute insights from this course to Wikipedia pages, thanks everyone

damn a professor that encourages students to learn more, rare in shitty unis of the world
who could tutor me online for this class? "system thinking" by email or skype or any method. or simply explain in an email some of the things I don't understand? I am willing to pay whatever fits. (ssm.00 at hot mail)
If you are looking for an introduction to the tools and techniques of SD, please check course number 15.871 and 15.872 on MIT OCW (ocw.mit.edu/courses/sloan-school-of-management/). These are the two courses that make up one semester of introductory System Dynamics at MIT.
Okay but one fourth of the lecture is just the prof tryna scare and talk down his pupils, could have easily edited that out
How i wish the book were translated to spanish... Its dificult for me understand it on english
sir
u r lectures are excellent -- How ever u r lectures r long -- pls make smaller modules
thanking u sir
