Peterson,Steven, "Using STELLA and System Concepts to Teach Microeconomics", 1985

ua435

Despite the power of our framework as a tool for learning, system dynamics has yet to penetrate into the economics discipline. A different approach to dissemination of system dynamics into the microeconomics mainstream is presented. In contrast with the traditional product-focused strategy, the new approach uses microeconomic theory as a context for the development of student modeling skills. The approach relies heavily on the STELLA software. It is embodied in a book for introductory and intermediate microeconomics students. The general specifications and design of the approach are presented. To illustrate the approach, a sample laboratory session from the book is provided.
