Crimmins, Gail; Lipton, Briony; McIntyre, Joanna; de Villiers Scheepers, Margarietha; English, Peter – Journal of Educational Administration and History, 2022

Greenhalgh, Joanne; Manzano, Ana – International Journal of Social Research Methodology, 2022
Context is a key concept in developing realist causal explanations but its conceptualisation has received comparatively less attention.

Objective: Systems thinking can be counterintuitive to everyday ways of knowing. This can surface doubt around predicted patterns of emergence in complex systems data, especially as it relates to the current climate crisis and related justice-oriented solutions. Method: Our study describes a four-year design-based research project in which we…

Maxwell, Bronwen; Sharples, Jonathan; Coldwell, Mike – Review of Education, 2022
Models of research use in education tend to focus on specific elements of education systems or underplay the complexity of system change. Within other public policy areas, notably health, more work has been undertaken to integrate systems thinking when considering knowledge mobilisation and research use. In this paper, we survey public policy…

Arthur, Dan; Moizer, Jonathan; Lean, Jonathan – Industry and Higher Education, 2023
The literature on innovation and regional economic development shows widespread references to 'systems' but relatively little application of systems thinking and problem structuring methods. Innovation models are thus under-theorised with operationally-based maps that link the structure of innovation systems to behaviour and possible policy…

This paper addresses the question of why young Australians with intellectual disability (ID) remain underrepresented in open employment despite significant investment by various stakeholders. It uses the analogy of Whack-a-Mole (an arcade game) to draw attention to the complexity young people face during transition, and to illustrate how…
