Thank you for this. It vindicates a lot of what I've be preaching as we develop courses. And it helps clarify what we need to be paying attention to.

One area we are weak on is "system of system" thinking. Can you suggest some references as good starting points?

I'm currently working through the SEBoK, which has some good ideas, but is also largely self-referential.

(At least so far, maybe it'll get better after they kill off a couple of main characters.)
