Abstract

ABSTRACT Carmichael’s discussion focusses on the education of Civil Engineering Systems practitioners, but any such aim requires a clear idea of the end product. There is an analogy between systems work and creativity. Do they rely on innate skill or can they be taught? I believe they can be taught, but the thinking processes needed require an approach radically different from the normal technique- and knowledge-focussed methods of most engineering teaching. A practice-focussed formality is required.

回复D. Carmichael的讨论“与系统合一”:为什么系统教育是不同的
卡迈克尔的讨论集中在土木工程系统从业者的教育上,但任何这样的目标都需要对最终产品有一个清晰的概念。系统工作和创造力之间有相似之处。他们是依靠天生的技能,还是可以被教导?我相信他们是可以教的,但是所需的思维过程需要一种与大多数工程教学中以技术和知识为中心的常规方法截然不同的方法。以实践为中心的形式是必需的。

期刊介绍: Civil Engineering and Environmental Systems is devoted to the advancement of systems thinking and systems techniques throughout systems engineering, environmental engineering decision-making, and engineering management. We do this by publishing the practical applications and developments of "hard" and "soft" systems techniques and thinking. Submissions that allow for better analysis of civil engineering and environmental systems might look at: -Civil Engineering optimization -Risk assessment in engineering -Civil engineering decision analysis -System identification in engineering -Civil engineering numerical simulation -Uncertainty modelling in engineering -Qualitative modelling of complex engineering systems
