  In Roundtable Session: Systems Thinking in Higher Education

Short Description

It is in vogue for educational organizations to have a modern classroom that showcases interactive technologies but rarely do re-designs include faculty, facilities, administration and academic computing working together, past their differences, for a common goal.
