Hello everyone.

I was wondering if you could refer me to any SD literature on forecasting school enrollments, from elementary to college, particularly with respect to developing countries. Would appreciate any info.

Thanks.

hi victor
i have just written a chapter for a HE book in this area using
the holon framework ( combines SSM,GQM and SD). the work mainly
concentrates on the soft part of the holon framework and data collection
using various web-based tools. ill forward a copy of the chapter in the
near future (when everything is settled).

currently, im working on establishing the emerging feedback loops - hope
to publish this work at next years SD conference (oxford).

kind regards
gary

Hello Victor,

I have a good story about enrollments.
Grade 13 is being eliminated in Ontario [45% of Canadian population] so that
this September 2 graduating classes are competing for College/University/job
spots. See the following for more details
