whole picture, recognizing that individual elements are interconnected and that their interactions shape the behavior of the entire system. By embracing this holistic view, we gain a deeper understanding of complex problems and can identify underlying patterns and relationships that might otherwise go unnoticed. B. The Ability to Predict What Happens Next: Complex systems are characterized by nonlinear dynamics, where small changes can lead to disproportionately large effects over time. Understanding these dynamics is crucial for anticipating the consequences of our actions and avoiding unintended outcomes. Systems thinking helps us identify the cause and effect within a system. By recognizing

relate to the students’ exam performance.To answer this research question, we represented the distribution of the students’ examperformance and quality of the study sheet. In addition, we performed a t-test analysis toexamine the effect of the quality of study sheet on two groups of students (MCS and LCS).While the students in the MCS group obtained a median score (85) or above, the students in theLCS group obtained a score below the median score.Figures 1(a) and 1(b) displayed below illustrate the distribution of exam performance and studysheet scores, respectively. Although the distribution of students’ exam performance is somewhatnormal, the distribution of study sheet scores is not. (a
