“…Within the field of ed tech, CST was mainly used to examine systemic-level program improvement. For example, Taylor and Goede (2016) used CSH to reflect on an original structure of instructional design and looked to develop an intervention that better met the needs of those involved in the program. Similarly, Bentley and Clarke (2011) used CST principles to better identify causes of successes and failures within higher education information strategy systems and solutions to uncovered problems.…”

Amid persistent systemic racism, society is interested in changing education systems toward racial equity. Education law and policy play a critical role in these efforts. Given this context, we conducted a systematic review to examine the use of critical systems thinking (CST) in education, a tradition that can aid researchers studying education law and policy issues that implicate racial equity in education. We found CST has been scarcely used in the field of education but, when used, it has been used to advance social justice concerns. We identify the applicability of CST in education and the opportunities that still exist for researchers to integrate CST in their critical work examining systemic racial inequity.

“…Historically, CST was initially rooted in five commitments (Taylor & Goede, 2016). As systems researchers continued to use CST, the five commitments coalesced around three overarching commitments: critical awareness, improvement/emancipation, and methodological pluralism (Midgley, 1996).…”

“…In the field of management studies, the research primarily centers on how PBL drives discipline-specific learning. This includes an analysis of the entrepreneurial competencies of university students before and after engaging in PBL, as conducted in the study by Taylor and Goede (2016). In the realm of distance education and educational research, the focus lies on the integration of PBL with technology, as explored in the study by Lin et al (2014).…”

In recent years, Project-Based Learning (PBL) has emerged as a significant initiative in the context of educational reforms, providing new potential for the education sector in China. The Ministry of Education has issued several guidelines to facilitate the integration of PBL in primary, secondary, and higher education institutions. Based on John Dewey's pragmatic philosophy, PBL encourages students to actively engage in collaborative learning, problem-solving, and real-world applications, fostering critical thinking and innovation. Compared to traditional classroom teaching, Problem-Based Learning (PBL) places learning in context, providing students with opportunities to apply acquired knowledge and skills. Consequently, PBL is deemed an effective approach for enhancing students' overall literacy, academic achievements, and self-guided learning abilities, which prepares them for future careers. Nonetheless, PBL poses challenges. Investigating the localisation of PBL in the Chinese educational context holds significant theoretical and practical value for advancing educational modernization in the new era. The current educational environment confronts numerous challenges in implementing reforms and fostering innovation. Utilizing CiteSpace, the research findings indicate that PBL has emerged as a focal point in educational research, gaining considerable attention both nationally and internationally. Its research domains are diverse, reflecting the multifaceted nature of PBL. In the national setting, research on PBL has made significant advancements, yet clear boundaries remain. Subsequently, forthcoming research in China might delve into the amalgamation of teacher education, multidimensional assessment of student abilities, and the broadening of PBL into broader subject areas.

“…Further CSH applications include the enhancement of teaching programmes (Algraini and McIntyre-Mills 2018;Goede and Taylor 2019;Manduna et al 2022;Taylor and Goede 2016; van der Linde and Goede 2021), the development of business intelligence systems (Venter 2019;Venter andGoede 2017, 2018), and building understanding in research practice (Nicholas et al 2019). These problem contexts are not overtly coercive, however, power dynamics, and conflicting understandings and interests do play an influential role: students and teachers have different roles and levels of control in the learning environment; different stakeholders may have multiple and conflicting requirements of a business intelligence system; researchers and practitioners may understand and interpret differently an emerging area of research.…”

“…CSH studies follow a range of methodological designs. Of the 77 reviewed papers, 12 stated that they were following an action research approach (Ariyadasa and McIntyre-Mills 2015;Dehghan Nayeri et al 2020;Duboc et al 2020;Goede and Taylor 2019;Kish et al 2021;Pinzon-Salcedo and Torres-Cuello 2018;Taylor and Goede 2016;Torun and Torlak 2022;van der Linde and Goede 2021;Venter 2019;Venter andGoede 2017, 2018). Action research ultimately aspires to beneficial change in the situation of interest.…”

Critical systems heuristics (CSH) has been influential in the development of critical systems thinking. However, it is a relatively underutilised method compared with soft systems approaches such as soft systems methodology (SSM) and cognitive mapping. This may be in part due to the complexity of ideas underpinning CSH. Core ideas with which users must feel confident include boundary critique, coercion, emancipation, and “is” vs “ought to be” framings. These ideas were the subject of the early discourse surrounding CSH, which considered the role of boundary critique in systems research, the extent to which CSH could meaningfully address coercion, and the claims of CSH as an emancipatory approach. The purpose of this review is to provide clarity on these key concepts by reflecting on how they have been addressed in the CSH literature to date. We find that CSH has been applied in a range of problem contexts and is most frequently applied to address coercion or power asymmetries. CSH research is frequently associated with advocacy for marginalised groups, and we believe this is a natural extension of the methodological emancipation to which CSH aspires. In providing an overview of the key ideas underpinning CSH, we hope to lower the barrier to application for systems researchers and practitioners.
