Entrepreneurship & Engineering Innovation

. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2020 Fostering Entrepreneurship in Project-Based Software Engineering CoursesIntroduction.The 2013 ASEE report on Transforming Undergraduate Engineering Education identifiedentrepreneurship and intrapreneurship as in-demand skills that require additional attention inengineering curricula for “expanding on business and economics acumen and enabling studentsto learn more than economic capitalization, but also the process of starting a business from anidea” [1]. Meanwhile, the technology sector is growing, led largely by software companies likeApple, Microsoft, Alphabet (parent of Google), and Facebook. Accordingly, many of the leadingsoftware companies emerged from a “tech startup” culture and

homework quizzes asan alternative to grading homework. Even if the student-learning results are not as dramatic as inthis study, in-class homework quizzes do greatly reduce the issue of knowing whose work isactually being assessed and used as part of a course grade as it is much more difficult forstudents to submit the work of others as their own on such a quiz.References[1] “Flipped Classroom?” https://facultyinnovate.utexas.edu/flipped-classroom Last queried:December 2019.[2] M.H.

This difference meansthat Nuevo Leon is above the mandatory number of years of education that is required in Mexicofor each person to complete (nine years representing the completion of middle school). On theother hand, Chiapas is well below the number of years necessary. The average in both states isexpected to increase in the future.

Thenational studies cited at the beginning of this paper indicate that imparting these skills is notconsistent nationwide, and furthermore that critical thinking skills are assumed to developorganically in graduate education. A search of ASEE conference papers since 1997 showed 98contributions with “critical thinking” as a theme, surely an indication of the importance of thesubject. Fewer than 10 of these dealt with graduate education, however. As far as the

In addition, another 53 questionnaires weredistributed to the identical students while they were seniors. The TKI scores were tallied anddocumented in order to determine each student’s conflict management style during their juniorand senior years and then used to evaluate the changes in styles, as a collective student group.To accomplish this effort, five independent samples one-tailed t-tests were performed for eachTKI conflict style.

Energy Engineering EducationAbstractThe Question Formulation Technique (QFT), a powerful yet simple teaching strategy recentlyfeatured in an ASEE online webinar, teaches students how to formulate, work with, improve, anduse their own questions. As a result, students become more confident researchers and bettervalue the role of question formulation in the learning process [1]. While the QFT has beenwidely used in other educational settings, its adoption in higher education has recently beenaccelerated in-part because of a National Science Foundation research study. In this work wedemonstrate two unique, innovative ways to integrate the QFT as a teaching strategy forrenewable energy engineering students. First, we will make visible how the QFT was
