This study investigates method of system dynamics and applied the Vensim software to develop an education effectiveness evaluation model. This study propose four cause-and-effect chains affecting education effectiveness, including Professors’ teaching method, home environment, study habits and Institute’s execution of scientific activities, as well as the system dynamics model based on the four cause-and-effect chains. Based on the developed system dynamic model, this study performed simulation to explore the association among Professors’ teaching method, home environment ,study habits and Institute’s execution of scientific activities,. The results of this study verified that there are positive correlations between home environment and students’ education effectiveness.
