| 520 | 3 | |a When viewed through the lens of the laws of thermodynamics and complexity theory, educational systems can provide relevant and reliable information for understanding and predicting policy performance over time. The model presented here describes an endogenous closed system that conserves matter and replicates aggregate patterns observed in reality, including the tendency of entropy to increase toward a maximum level, as a result of internal positive feedbacks. Simulations are used to help understand the long-term impact of exogenous events such as changes in educatedpopulation, per capita income, and school infrastructure. The resulting changes in the system's steady-state equilibrium suggest conditions that may promote a sustainable transition toward universal primary education. | |
