Criterion 3(c) states, “an ability to design a system, components, or process tomeet desired needs within realistic constraints such as economic, environmental, social,political, ethical, health and safety, manufacturability, and sustainability” while criterion 3(h)states, “the broad education necessary to understand the impact of engineering solutions in aglobal, economic, environmental, and societal context” [3].

These positive influences and the industrydemands have elevated collaborative learning to a core pedagogical practice for qualityengineering education at all educational levels [2], [4], [17].Within pre-college (K-12) engineering education, the curriculum design integrates studentsworking with partners or teams on projects as standard practice in the curriculum design. In thiscontext, effective integration provides similar student benefits as those demonstrated in highereducation [18]. However, with a need to increase participation of students from underrepresentedcommunities in engineering and other STEM career pathways there is an increased awareness onthe quality of engineering instruction

challenge for educators is not only to overcome the barrier of traditional reductionist orlinear thinking in education and develop methods to teach systems thinking [10], but also toassess the effects of such curriculum changes on students’ ability to think in systems. This typeof assessment requires new forms of assessment methods and instruments to measure students’systems thinking abilities [11]. Recently, many have contributed to the discussion on assessingor measuring the ability of systems thinking [13]–[16]. These methods broadly fit into twotypes: instructor assessment of thinking outcomes and student self-evaluation of thinkingability.
