In the future, a survey will be given to studentsat the first build session, and the same survey upon completion to measure competencies.A statistical analysis of the survey results was performed. For each category considered, the datawas first tested for normality. For normally distributed data sets, a paired t-test was used. For thedata that was not normal, the Wilcoxon R-S test was used to test for significance. A p-value lessthan 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Figure 2a: First part of survey

experiential learning format.Although Besterfield-Sacre et al. (2012)’s work presents a tool for assessing entrepreneurialknowledge, the inventory is a measure of students’ self-assessed knowledge rather than a “directmeasure of measurement of the actual skills and knowledge” (p. 8). We argue that this approachdoes not completely capture students’ understanding of entrepreneurial concepts due to emphasison only students’ familiarity with concepts and terms, rather than their ability to internalize andapply entrepreneurial knowledge. In other words, overall there is almost no research that uses adirect measure of entrepreneurial knowledge to assess the impact of entrepreneurship programson student learning. Guided by this gap, in our study, we examined

For example, Participant 77’s pre-map (not shown) includes the term“technological determinism” as a node linked to “design”, “unintended consequences”, and“ethical decision making” and a side note that states “I do not subscribe wholesale to this theory,but some professors in the past have treated this as doctrine.” It should be noted thattechnological determinism as an argument for what primarily drives social change is critiqued bySTS

through photosynthesis by future biomass crops.In 2011, it was discovered that bioenergy was used as an energy source more than oil in Sweden.The Swedish Energy Agency found that 31.7% of the energy used was generated from biomasswhile 30.8% of the energy originated from oil. One of the principal reasons for this increase inbioenergy is the fact that biomass is the primary energy source in the district heating sector, asector that demands more than half of the overall heat demand in residential areas. 7 Figure 5shows the different sources of energy in Sweden in 2011 (Sweden Energy Use 2010, May 10).

Thefinal section contains our conclusions and outlines areas for future exploration.BackgroundThe approaches to teaching inventory (ATI) has been developed and refined over the lastdecade.1 It has its origins in phenomenographic studies of teachers’ attitudes to teachingand learning in the mid 1990’s. Prosser and Trigwell advance the view that there is afundamental qualitative difference between a student-centric and teacher-centric view of thelearning process [4, page 408]. They argue that a student centered approach to facilitatinglearning focuses on the nature of the learning itself, placing the main emphasis on

presentation of such an equation must necessarily beaccompanied by a definition of the terms along with their units: RMR is the metal removal rate inmm3/s or in3/min, I is the current in amps, and Tm is the melting temperature of the work metal inC or F.Perhaps the most rigorous treatment of units is in the thermal sciences. Most thermodynamics,fluid mechanics, and heat transfer texts use unit conversion factors to demonstrate a rigorouscancellation process in example problems. Students are left with no doubts as to where numberscome from. In spite of the rigor with which units are treated, there is no common non-SI systemused in thermal science texts.

actualassignments.Introductory ProjectFollowing a class visit by a cancer-surviving individual who provided an in-depth, personaloverview of his cancer experience, the students were tasked with exploring distinctly the diseasepathway, intervention/ device treatment pathway, and the patient pathway for either breast orprostate cancer. Each student selected which of the two types of cancer s/he would explore.Overall, this introductory project had several underlying goals that aimed to lay a foundation forthe entire course. First, this introductory project was to provide opportunities for the students tobuild skills in examining the disease, device, and patient pathways of cancer. In subsequentprojects, students would further refine their skills and apply them to other
