Intention building,    rewarding risk-taking

Mathematica and SystemModeler as narrative processes

Victorian Curriculum and Assessment Authority  Systems Engineering

A unique Study that rewards

the development and modelling of a plan

for a controlled, electromechanical response to a

problem/ situation/ opportunity/ need,

using a narrative mechanism that

rewards risk - taking when the plan does not go to plan.

Intention building

A response to a problem/ situation/ opportunity/ need

Understand problem/ situation/ opportunity/need in multiple ways/ means

Research
