[1].The report continues to state that: While continuing to pursue increased knowledge and higher standards of excellence in teaching, research and innovation, two- and four-year colleges in Texas will need to consider more explicitly the primary reason most students attend college: to get a better job and achieve a better life. [1]A primary outcome of the 60x30TX initiative relevant to our discussion is the following: By 2030, all graduates from Texas public institutions of higher education will have completed programs with identified marketable skills: The marketable skills goal emphasizes the value of higher education in the workforce.

Experience with the course has suggested thatgiving students more agency in their team selection has resulted in more ownership in the team’ssuccess/failure as reflected in student evaluations. Since teams were formed in the same way inboth groups, team formation does not play a role in the differences found in the results betweenthe groups that will be discussed in later sections.Research MethodThe goal of this research is to understand if the intervention of cohering Introduction toEngineering and Small Group Communication has resulted in better team dynamics.

Critical evaluation of construct development is necessary as themost commonly used entrepreneurship scales have been developed in the context ofbusiness creation among business students. As engineering entrepreneurship educationcontinues to evolve into its own unique field and encompass a wider scope beyond newventure creation, it is critical to reflect on this evolution in research and assessmentdevelopment.As the research community collaborates to formalize a common definition of EM, weadvocate that this should not stop practitioners from assessing student-learning

This fact has been reflected in the survey results of this study.This may result in some alumni engineers having to learn the software in post-graduationopportunities or internships. This underutilization of computer skills in some of the BAE courseshave challenged the students with class examples and homework problems that require the use ofthe software practice based on today job market needs [29], [30]. Therefore, the need to invest inand investigate this knowledge gap is a critical issue that has been highlighted in this study.The evaluation of results also indicates that many instructors

First, theM2 approach places making in a context that is culturally and socially situated to the students’ ownexperience. Second, it exposes students to the facets of the production pipeline, leading them tothe potential to develop novel and useful products for society. Third, M2 creates a scenario thatplaces students in long-term production as Makers fully engaging in STEM. Altogether, thisapproach could give students a holistic view as to their developed making skills may be transferred.This reflects Grovetants’ identity formation specifically as to how the M2 holds implications onteamwork, leadership, critical

They are completingthe same problems individually and their group score reflects how many quiz questions eachperson gets right. One enhancement might be creating a system that would require them to workcollaboratively to solve a more complicated problem or to engage in other activities such asreviewing each other’s code.Another problem is the lack of an integrated IDE within SEP-CyLE.

A small dropin the rating is observed in the second year, which we believe is due to the fact that all the highquality PBL criteria were not satisfied properly. This is also reflected in the students’ commentas they found the group project to be more stressful: “Not sure that the group project for us didmuch more than added more stress.” With addition of Agile in the third year, the overall learningrating shows a promising improvement indicating that the management skills helped student tomanage their projects to learn more.Students were also asked to provide an overall rating for the instructor (Q5).

Various researchers agree that hands-on activities can assist students torelate to the concepts that are behind the technology used in these activities [20-22]. This isespecially important in academic areas like mechanical principles where mathematical andengineering theory are connected with manual methods [23].In education, robots are used in outreach activities to motivate students to become interested inScience, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) starting in kindergarten [24] andelementary school [25, 26] and beyond.
