: this topic focused on reliving a special moment of achievement and recognition; • Introduce your readers to a mentor who supported you: this topic often highlighted the contributions of a teacher, parent, or other mentor who helped to guide the student.Students wrote a different story every week, first as a draft (followed by a review session withstudent peers and the instructor) and then as a revised text. Students did not receive a grade fortheir weekly writing; instead, the course focused on writing feedback that could allow the studentto develop their own writing process.In a required junior-level Thermodynamics course and in two upper-level elective courses inCivil and Environmental Engineering, students were asked to write

feedback provided by the instructor after reviewing their third draft. • Peer evaluations: Students complete three peer evaluations throughout the semester, using the CATME software [7].Individual learning assignments (ILAs)The different ILAs that were submitted throughout the semester are below. ILA1 and ILA2 arebased on assignments since before the author took over this course; the remaining ILAs weredeveloped by the author. With the exception of ILA5, which was expected to be a 300-500 wordsubmission, all ILAs are expected to be 600-1000 words. • ILA1: Students write about a WP of their choice, explain the characteristics of the problem that make it a WP, provide two examples of stakeholders for this problem, and

once a week throughout a 16-weeksemester. Lectures were structured to promote active-learning through brief warm-ups, frequentdiscussions, and in-class activities that promoted small group collaboration. The instructorspromoted an inclusive, safe environment in which students could share with peers their thoughtsand trepidations about their professional careers. This was done through write-pair-sharediscussions and activities, personal examples of professional successes and failures shared by theinstructional team, and allotted time for questions and comments.Guest speakers who were experts in specific areas were utilized for multiple class sessions,including: the lectures in understanding personal values (faculty member in education) and

time to add new ideas or projects [8]. Theyfound that fewer than 25% of the sampled classroom-specific resources could be completed inone class period or less. There appears to be a need in the engineering education community forshorter EML activities that enhance students' abilities to learn and engage with technical content.Active learning is described in different ways, and some of them include: a) “..anything thatinvolves students in doing things and thinking about the things they are doing”, b) “involvesproviding opportunities for students to meaningfully talk and listen, write, read and reflect on thecontent ideas, issues and concerns of an academic subject”, c) “increasing of studentparticipation or ‘interactivity’, for the purpose of

. Additionally, Iron Range Engineering had allmajors undertake entrepreneurial projects, resulting in the development of a business plan[12].Beyond the confines of specific majors, Loh et al. [13] discuss a second-major option forundergraduates at the National University of Singapore (NUS). This initiative allows studentsfrom any major to participate in multidisciplinary project work aimed at cultivating aninnovative and entrepreneurial mindset. At the master's level, the University of Duisburg-Essen offers a Master of Arts in Innopreneurship, designed to equip students with the skillsneeded for self-employment or innovative roles within established companies [14].Whereas the focus of our writing up to now has been on the form of innovation

this experience of writing poems, “wasa lot of fun.”Bob recalled that “the kind of assignments given” in programming courses he took during hisundergraduate and graduate program required him to be creative. Such assignments asked you toutilize “some different thought processes or different ways to get you a solution.” Like Bob,Victor also noted that several programming courses throughout his graduate education, where hewas asked to demonstrate and practice his creative thinking skills. However, he recalled anothercourse from his undergraduate education in a different country, where the first year of theengineering curriculum is the same for all majors. In this curriculum, there was an electrical andelectronics course during the lab in which
