chapter_introduction
<p>Chapter 7 of the curriculum focuses on systems and systems thinking. These are not entirely new topics, having been introduced throughout the curriculum. In Chapter 1, students drew an interdependence web, showing how many things are connected to a single item or event. In Chapters 3 and 4, they explored how emotions arise from causes and within a context, and that a spark can escalate into a forest fire, affecting everything around it. Systems thinking is built into the entire curriculum, but in this chapter it is approached directly and explicitly.</p><p> </p><p><a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1XbFR_1VItzgQAFk_d-tfVEO9lCWYRUL9/view?… full chapter</strong></a></p>
