System dynamics as a technology of learning for new liberal education

Summary form only given as follows. Technology provides a framework for problem solving which the educational endeavors for learning about technology must also subsume. Most problems in the current day world are, however, unforeseen and not amenable to being addressed through an inventory of situational solutions. Technology also having many facets, the education of technology requires a multi-disciplinary approach that should unify knowledge and offer a common vehicle for recognizing and analyzing complex problem. The proposed paper examines the experimental process of system dynamics as a possible learning vehicle for multi-disciplinary education on technology. The heuristical procedure of system dynamics is equated with Kolb´s model of learning. The various tasks needed to be performed in the implementation of the learning process and the competencies required to be inculcated for performing those tasks are discussed
