Content: Creating a Simple Systems Map (I1/I2)
Marc's mapping exercise
See [[Systems Certification]]


For examples see [[Kid's Mind Maps]]

Intention:
- To enable students to see that they are already systems thinkers
- To identify a system of focus (something they want to see change)


Materials:
Pens, Paper, Post its, Whiteboard?


Questions:
- Should this be an individual exercise or a team?
- Should the focus be open or directed? eg Think of something in your community that you value/ you'd like to change/ a problem you've noticed.
- Should it be very directed eg create a mission statement for your community. 
- This can be tee'd up at the end of week 1. They can be directed to talk to their family and friends about this.



Risks and mitigation:
