2022 study,researchers found that even solo-founded successful ventures involve some model of shared leadership byincluding what they call a board of cocreators to manage their organization [3]. Howell et al. challengethe idea of co-founding but reaffirm the idea of ventures using a model of shared leadership.2.3 Shared leadership in engineering educationWu et al. [13] used a social network analysis approach to define when and when not to use a sharedleadership approach in engineering design teams. In their study, they try to understand when sharedleadership can be positively related to team effectiveness. Most of the previous studies they review dealwith shared leadership amongst the team members, but not with the formal establishment of a co

Timing remains a question to be answered, whether itcan be after the exercise or held the next class period with the same effectiveness.This class activity showed that conducting a moot court case on design standards has thepotential to be an effective way to promote learning, critical thinking, teamwork, andengagement, while also fostering a greater awareness and appreciation for the importance ofcompliance with design standards in professional practice. We look forward to presenting a morecomplete review of this work, including an in-depth assessment of students' learning in a latercommunication.References[1] ABET, “Criteria for Accrediting Engineering Programs, 2021 – 2022

Student participants were grouped based on the sequence inwhich they took two required second-year courses (Biomechanics and Biomaterials). Group Aare students who enrolled in Biomechanics in the Fall 2022 (FA22) semester and Biomaterials inSpring 2023 (SP23). The instructors for Group A developed technical scientific writing modulesthat are being implemented in the lab portion of the course. Group B consists of students whotake Biomaterials in FA22 and Biomechanics in SP23 without the technical writing component.Students from both groups will

To meet this need, we created two new junior-level courses:Molecular Engineering (BME305L) and Cellular Engineering (BME306L) thatwere offered in the Fall and Spring of 2022, respectively. We have emphasizedstudent-centered experimental and laboratory practice as the backbone of thesecourses to prepare students for authentic research experiences in any industry.Molecular Engineering integrates computational and experimental learningoutcomes

Initial assessment of this program revealed that the VR clinicalimmersion experiences greatly amplified the students' phenomenological sensations of immersion andpresence [8]. In this work, we further examine the phenomenological framework of educational VRplatforms [13-15] by focusing on the felt sensations of boredom and psychological engagement whilevirtually immersed in clinical procedures.Methods:We adopted the boredom definition of Fahlman et al. as “the aversive experience of having an unfulfilleddesire to be engaged in satisfying activity” due to their comprehensive list of how boredom

The thirteen competencies investigated in this study are defined in AppendixTable 3. These competencies were defined a priori in spring 2021 as being desirable for a high-impact experience to demonstrate, with the caveat that the variety of high-impact experienceswould not necessarily support all 13 competencies being addressed.Four semesters (fall 2021, spring 2022, summer 2022

Enhancedvalidation ensures the need is sufficiently compelling for students to develop solutions andelevated outcomes (e.g., intellectual property, manuscript) to be realized by students.Beginning in 2022, CIP was revised to incorporate the design firm IDEO’s design thinkingmodel. This model evaluates a need/project according to three perspectives: desirability,feasibility, and viability [31, 32]. Desirability considers the real-world user as assessed byprimary observation, synthesis, and stakeholder analysis culminating in evaluation of a userneed. Feasibility
