Systems thinking offers a comprehensive approach to problem-solving by focusing on the interactions of components within a whole. In eLearning, it helps educators understand the interplay between learners, facilitators, technology, content, and institutional factors, influencing outcomes such as engagement, knowledge retention, and skill development. Applying systems thinking promotes the design of dynamic eLearning programs responsive to learners' needs through strategies like holistic design and leveraging feedback loops for continuous improvement. This perspective fosters a more effective learning environment by ensuring alignment among objectives, diverse learner needs, and system components.
Systems thinking is a problem-solving approach that views a system as a whole, focusing on the relationships and interactions between its components rather than isolated parts.
An eLearning program can be viewed as a system with several interconnected components, where a poorly designed LMS can frustrate learners, reducing engagement.
To enhance the effectiveness of eLearning programs, systems thinking can be applied by designing with a holistic perspective and leveraging feedback loops.
Educators can create eLearning programs that are dynamic and responsive to learners' needs by applying principles of systems thinking.
