It should be noted that one option wasgiven only to the entrepreneurial faculty (i.e., currently has entrepreneurial venture(s)). (SeeTable 2 for complete data.)The following question was asked of only the senior design instructors as a follow-up to theprevious ideal instructor characteristics question, “Which of the above characteristics do you feelare most important

The need for guiding criteria is especially acutewhen faculty members are integrating new learning outcomes into their courses.“Closing the loop,” or leveraging assessment data to identify deficiencies in class activities,courses, or programs, and as a guide on how to address those identified deficiencies, is acommon weakness of assessment programs. Rubrics provide a powerful tool for guiding thedevelopment of learning activities that cultivate specific elements of the entrepreneurial mindset.Rubrics are equally powerful tools for assessing the effectiveness of class activities designed toadvance specific
