Exploring Systems Analysis and Historical Investigations in Problem Solving

This comprehensive guide examines the principles of systems analysis and historical investigations. It explores how to predict outcomes when altering a system and evaluates various problem-solving approaches, illustrated through engaging activities like designing a satellite virtual pond habitat and historical scenarios involving sod houses. Photographs by John Hamilton enhance the understanding of the subjects. With a focus on the scientific method and decision-making frameworks, this guide encourages innovative thinking and creativity in tackling both modern and historical problems.
