Chaos/Complexity Theory and Education
Sciences exist to demonstrate the fundamental order underlying nature. Chaos/complexity theory is a novel and amazing field of scientific inquiry. Notions of our everyday experiences are somehow in connection to the laws of nature through chaos/complexity theory’s concerns with the relationships between simplicity and complexity, between orderliness and randomness (Retrieved from http://www.inc...

متن کاملTwo lessons from fractals and chaos
We used to think that a good measurement is characterized by its mean and variance and that a good theory is characterized by its ability to predict the values measured in an experiment. The properties of nonlinear systems called fractals and chaos have now taught us that this isn’t necessarily true. Data from fractal systems extend over many scales and so cannot be characterized by a single ch...
متن کاملPatient safety and rocket science.
To cite: McCulloch P. BMJ Qual Saf Published Online First: [please include Day Month Year] doi:10.1136/ bmjqs-2015-004863 ‘This safety stuff, it’s not rocket science’. Many readers of this journal will undoubtedly have heard this sentiment expressed by their clinical colleagues. The article by Kemper et al shows just how widely this impression of patient safety misses the mark. This high-qualit...
متن کاملSimple lessons from complexity
The complexity of the world is contrasted with the simplicity of the basic laws of physics. In recent years, considerable study has been devoted to systems that exhibit complex outcomes. This experience has not given us any new laws of physics, but has instead given us a set of lessons about appropriate ways of approaching complex systems.
