What is a system?
What is a system?
A group of interconnected parts that work together to achieve a common purpose. Each part is important and contributes to the system's overall function.
Bertalanffy's System View
Bertalanffy's System View
Bertalanffy's view of a system emphasizes that all parts are interconnected and influence each other. This means no single part can function independently.

Study Notes
Systems Theory in Education
- Systems theory is a common framework in various fields.
- Bertalanffy viewed humans as integrated wholes, a system.
- A system is a collection of interconnected parts working together.
- The parts are linked by overlapping relationships.
- Cleland and King view systems as assembled parts creating a whole.
- These parts are subsystems, possibly containing other systems.
