Abstract

[Some definitions related to understanding systems are given, and different types of systems are described. Some generic traits of systems are discussed, including processes, interactions, integration, and emergence. A special type of system known as a “complex adaptive system,” which is the kind found in social systems such as schools, is explored. The special attributes of complex systems, including levels and time, are described, as well as messes and wicked problems.]
