TLDR
The feedback mechanism involved in all principles for artificial learning refers back to the notion of the control-circuit, which serves as a basis for the analysis and the design of feedback-control systems.Abstract:
The feedback mechanism involved in all principles for artificial learning refers back to the notion of the control-circuit. This very common concept serves as a basis for the analysis and the design of feedback-control systems.read more

Defining Computational Thinking for Mathematics and Science Classrooms
David Weintrop,Elham Beheshti,Michael S. Horn,Kai Orton,Kemi Jona,L. Trouille,L. Trouille,Uri Wilensky +7 more
TL;DR: This paper proposes a definition of computational thinking for mathematics and science in the form of a taxonomy consisting of four main categories: data practices, modeling and simulation practices, computational problem solving practices, and systems thinking practices.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sources of capabilities, integration and technology commercialization
TL;DR: Results show that internal human and technology-based manufacturing sources are positively associated with successful TC and formal and informal integration mechanisms also significantly moderate the relationships observed between capability sources and TC.

Thinking in Levels: A Dynamic Systems Approach to Making Sense of the World
Uri Wilensky,Mitchel Resnick +1 more
TL;DR: The StarLogo modeling language is designed as a medium for students to build models of multi-leveled phenomena and through these constructions explore the concept of levels as discussed by the authors, which is fundamental to scientific theory.

The formation and value of IT-enabled resources: antecedents and consequences of synergistic relationships
Saggi Nevo,Michael Wade +1 more
TL;DR: This paper synthesizes systems theory and the resource-based view of the firm to build a unified conceptual model linking IT assets with firm-level benefits, suggesting that IT assets can play a strategic role when they are combined with organizational resources to create IT-enabled resources.

Development of system thinking skills in the context of earth system education
Orit Ben-Zvi Assaraf,Nir Orion +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the development of system thinking in the context of the earth systems consists of several sequential stages arranged in a hierarchical structure, and the cognitive skills that are developed in each stage serve as the basis for the developing of the next higher-order thinking skills.

A review of the recent contribution of systems thinking to operational research and management science
John Mingers,Leroy White +1 more
TL;DR: A review of the contribution that systems thinking has been making more recently, especially to the practice of OR, and it is concluded that while systems may not be well established institutionally, in terms of academic departments, it is incredibly healthy in Terms of the quantity and variety of its applications.
