Natural Resources Management University of Bergen offers a graduate level distance learning course (MOOC) in Natural Resources Management. In this course, students learn to manage water reservoirs, fisheries, animal herds, climate etc., and they learn to operate in product markets and in case of commons problem, in quota markets. The course is interactive with on-line tasks and immediate answers, videos, analogies, animations, simulators, simulation models, and a message service. Earlier students rank highly the course and its innovative teaching methods. The course runs in fall and spring semesters, offers an exam, and there is no tuition fee.
Small System Dynamics Models for BIG Issues: Triple Jump towards Real-World Dynamic Complexity (with electronic case book) Dr. Erik Pruyt of Delft University of Technology developed this e-book for teaching and testing (large) introductory and intermediate System Dynamics courses, blended collaborative online learning, and hands-on self-teaching. The e-book is available for free. It allows anybody determined to acquire quantitative hands-on SD modelling and simulation skills to do so in the shortest possible time. Students make models, simulate them, analyze and interpret their outcomes, and use them to design adaptive policies and test their robustness. Models relate to real current dynamic issues. Full tracks of cases relate to health and drug policy, housing policy and urban planning, energy transitions and resource dynamics, wildlife and ecosystem management, safety and security, criminality and policing, education and innovation, economics and finance, and management and business. Those interested in just one of these application domains can acquire these skills by exercising only with cases within their domain of interest. The e-book is updated periodically with new cases. The course is self-taught and an exam will be offered to July 2016 conference registrants.
