Engineering Education, 2022 Powered by www.slayte.com Work in progress: Creating micromoments to develop a student’s entrepreneurial mindsetIntroductionEngineering programs aim to prepare students for their careers. This includes training students tobe innovative and to adapt to fast-changing professional environments. To address this aim,many programs adopt pedagogical approaches that promote inquiry and use skill-based learning,such as entrepreneurial minded learning (EML). With the framework that was developed by theKern Entrepreneurial Engineering Network (KEEN) [1], EML promotes curiosity, connections,and creating value strategies, known as the 3C’s. EML encourages

IntroductionIn Fall 2022, a required subtractive manufacturing course has been improved with a term projectfocused to service learning. The intention was to develop and implement practices tied to servicelearning and enhance the course students’ learning and success by implementing a servicelearning – focused term project. Service Learning is a teaching and learning approach thatconnects academic course to community-based problem solving practices [1]. Service Learninghas been proven as a successful student-centered learning activity in a high number ofEngineering and
