In this study, we examined the impact ofthe “Idea Generation” and “Concept Development” learning blocks. Each learning block takesapproximately 6 hours to complete and is built on pedagogical best practices that combines self-study with remote feedback [29]. It focuses on a student-centered teaching approach developedaround the constructivist learning theory [30], which allows content sharing online without timeand location limitations [31]. The learning blocks are built around the best practices in teachingand learning to promote active engagement, which is essential for success

From our perspective, this mixed modality approachoffers students a dynamic learning environment and an equally exciting opportunity for facultymembers to conduct research related to student experiences and behaviors.In this dynamic classroom setting, which includes historical context, reflection on one’s mindset,process learning, and methods teaching, we developed a relevant research question, which is thebasis for this paper: Does an entrepreneurial mindset assessment predict a student’s behavior

It is expected, based on Reusch et al.’s results [22], that there is a higherdifficulty level on the MCT problems used. This, in turn, may have been reflected by themoderate increase in EDA when we consider dividing this value by the time expended on theMCT problem-set as can be estimated from the two Figure 3 graphs (e.g., 0.05microSiemens/minute for MCT). The preliminary results of this pilot study corroborate thesefindings by suggesting a higher normalized arousal (or mean range-corrected EDA/timed event)found in these types of problems compared to PSVT:R (0.13 microSiemens/minute) and Staticsproblems (0.01 microSiemens/minute) (Figure 3).Parallel
