the End: Introducing a Final Exam Problem on the First ClassMeeting to Foster Curiosity and Engagement Throughout the SemesterintroductionThe Kern Entrepreneurial Engineering Network (KEEN) promotes an Entrepreneurial Mindset(EM) consisting of 3 Cs: curiosity, connections, and creating value [1]. It is claimed thatinstilling students with EM will improve their learning outcomes and career readiness [2], [3].Recent research has shown that EM can be applied to Engineering Technology (ET) coursework,with promising results [4], [5], [6].The motivation for this study was to examine whether activities based on EM would improve theperceived weak aspects of an existing junior-level mechanical engineering technology (MET)class on finite element

Appalachia region.Introduction and Background LiteratureThe Region Central Appalachia encompasses 68 counties in greatest economic distress within therural regions of Kentucky, Virginia, Tennessee, and West Virginia [13]. Job creation and access tohigher education within Central Appalachia has proven difficult because of the isolation andrugged terrain of mountainous geography. This isolation has limited infrastructure that supportsindustry and provides the resources desired by people who could be enticed to live and work inthe area [1]. Within the region, companies that employ engineers have a difficult time hiring andretaining engineers [1]. Companies have also reported a need for an increase in the number ofengineers local to the region

-culturalcontexts. The word 'diaspora' denotes the forced relocation of a person, community, or group ofpeople from their native country to a foreign region [1]. Furthermore, it implies a cultural shiftfrom original traditions to a blend of practices in the new country. As a result of this change,diaspora communities are unable to preserve their cultural identity, leading them to sufferfeelings of alienation, nostalgia, and desire[2]. For the majority of the next two thousand years,the term diaspora maintains its limited definition. What becomes intriguing about the phrase isthat its definition gradually broadened over the 20th century [3]. Upon encountering a hybrid environment, individuals may either embrace cross-culturalism orhave a persistent

The system is modelledin VHDL and can be simulated using Xilinx design tools to demonstrate operation of theprocessor. A basic microcontroller is then created by adding memory-mapped I/O. The systemcan be synthesized and implemented in hardware on an FPGA. The processor can then beinterfaced with multiple peripheral devices to demonstrate a variety of applications.Several Computer Architecture courses exist which use hardware description language modelsand simulation, combined with FPGA implementation.

We reason that a single justification is also a single piece of data andperhaps a single point of failure (for the student) whereas multiple justification options forpotential wrong answers might help build a more complete picture of a student’s conceptualunderstanding. Because the two tiers provide two scores, a correctness score and a justificationscore, we seek to understand the degree to which one can quantify
