In that context, it is important for female students to see successful female STEMentrepreneurs for both symbolic as well as functional reasons [46], [51]. Symbolically, exposureto female STEM entrepreneurs can signal to female students that STEM entrepreneurship is notonly for men and that women can be successful in entrepreneurship. Functionally, femalestudents are likely to pay greater attention to female STEM entrepreneurs and take an interest inhearing about the challenges they have faced and how they have integrated the seeminglyconflicting social roles of being an entrepreneur and a woman. Consequently, we propose thatfemale students who are part of

. For the teaching of wireless communication systems, SDRhas been the key enabling technology for a wider adoption of PBL pedagogies. SDR’s use ofprogrammable software frameworks and general-purpose hardware lowers the barrier-to-entryfor students to model, implement, debug, and verify real-world communication systems. As withany example of PBL, when using SDR to meet intended learning goals it is important to give dueconsideration to key subject design characteristics such as project complexity and open-endedness.The subject reported in this paper exists as an opportunity for students to integrate priorknowledge from overlapping areas in communication systems, signal processing, and embeddedsystems.

highschool students and 64% of middle school students found systems thinking concepts and tools tobe an effective way to learn class material [41].More specifically, systems thinking instruction appears to be less prevalent in engineering thanin other fields. Engineering as a field could greatly benefit from the incorporation of ST into itseducation system. Godfrey et al. emphasize this value by discussing the benefits of incorporatingconcepts of ST into the engineering curriculum to promote critical thinking, problem-solving,and creativity among engineering students [42]. Applications of ST have been discussed toenhance students' learning power, which refers to their ability to learn independently and adapt tochanging situations. More courses in

These courses can include programming(structured procedural design and object-oriented design), Digital Design, and microprocessorsand microcontrollers (introduction, intermediate, and advanced). Additionally, systems-orientedcourses (e.g., Communication Systems, Control Systems, Senior-level Project-based courses,etc.) typically include embedded systems as an integral component.C/C++ programming is often used with embedded systems courses as the core component.

From the perspective of assessment, “ethics inaction” is problematic for instructors who encounter students only in the classroom context. It isnonetheless quite useful because it provides an integrative, non-hierarchical framework thatallows us to think about engineering ethics education on a larger scale than we ordinarily do. Italso opens up the possibility of recognizing the structural factors that have made it difficult tointegrate ethics into the engineering curriculum on a systematic basis.Despite an abundance of resources available to support engineering ethics instruction, includingcases provided through the Online Ethics Center (OEC), “the engineering literature
