Abstract

The basics of system dynamics modelling were taught to postgraduate students as part of a Masters course. The course was taught in an online e-learning environment incorporating both synchronous and asynchronous tools to facilitate the collaborative nature of the tasks. The focus of this article is to investigate the patterns present in decision-making in one group engaged in an online task involving the modification of a system dynamics model (SDM) as a tool for learning.
