NOTES
1.

Argyris defines "single-loop" learning with an analogy of a thermostat: "A thermostat that automatically turns on the heat whenever the temperature in a room drops below 68 degrees is a good example of 'single-loop' learning. A thermostat that could ask, 'Why am I set at 68 degrees?' and then explore whether or not some other temperature might more economically achieve the goal of heating the room would be engaging in 'double-loop' learning."
