In this final exam assignment, students analyze a current news article on stem cell policy and assess its impact on two sectors—economy, healthcare, research and development, or education. They then construct a causal loop diagram to illustrate the systemic relationships involved, identifying variables, feedback types, and explaining the dynamics of the loop. The task integrates policy analysis with systems thinking and visual modeling.
