defining sustainability or answering objective questions (e.g., multiple choice).Assessments of design skills capture higher-order cognitive processes which may require bothconceptual and procedural knowledge; for example, students applying sustainable design to theircapstone projects. Assessments of beliefs, attitudes, or interests reflect self-knowledge and aremore indicative of motivation to perform sustainable design or act sustainably, rather than ademonstrated ability to do so.Accordingly, the research questions guiding this review were:1. What tools are available for assessing students’ (a) conceptual knowledge, (b) design skills or application of knowledge, and/or (c) beliefs/attitudes/interests related to sustainability?2.

want students to recognize that approaching problems from multipledisciplinary perspectives can lead to better solutions. In this way, we aim to foster across-disciplinary empathy that facilitates collaboration.Course DesignThe course itself is organized around an objective, an outcome, and an output. The ​objective​ isthat each student will learn: “about a) working in teams, to b) build things, that c) collaboratewith people in ways that matter.” The anticipated ​outcome​ is the student’s increased ability toidentify their own strengths (and weaknesses) in working and communicating alongside peoplein other fields than their own. The anticipated ​output​ will be team-constructed drones, and teamdesigned and implemented drone payload systems.In

To match the pre-and-post survey, participants were asked to writetheir e-mail addresses in their responses. Some of the participants did not write their emailaddress and thus, their pre-and-post survey diagrams could not be matched. As a result, pre-and-post survey diagrams from only 24 participants could be matched and analyzed.
