What Systems Thinking Reveals About Cause and Effect

AgriCurious Podcast by The LammLab

Episode notes

What usually goes wrong when we try to solve complex problems using simple cause-and-effect thinking?

How do we feel when that approach doesn’t lead to one clear “right” answer?

In this episode, Dennis sits down with Dr. Kevan Lamm, an associate professor in the Department of Agricultural Leadership, Education, and Communication at the University of Georgia and an Extension leadership specialist, to explore what systems thinking reveals about cause and effect. They also discuss how the STEPS project uses hypothetical case scenarios as reusable learning objects to strengthen students’ thinking about food systems and everyday life.
