Assignment task: I am trying to develop a short "Systems Thinking" report summarizing the system items for an off-grid house. I am looking to cover these items:
- Identify the main purpose or function of the system
- Diagram the system showing the main stocks, factors, and decision points (if any)
- Draw arrows to show connections between elements (couplings)
- Identify feedback loops if there are any / mark those loops with "+" or "-" depending on whether those positive or negative
- Provide annotation to the schematic to explain how the system works (especially feedbacks) and what forces keep it sustainable.
- If you were to add some technologies to the system to improve its sustainability, what kind of technologies would those be?
