significant conceptual errorsand only minor procedural errors and a nominal grade between 89%-70%. Lower classifications are“Minimal” and “Unsatisfactory”. Indirect assessment of the students by means of confidential, pre and/orpost module surveys were used to gauge the effectiveness of the module at changing students’ perceptionsand improving their entrepreneurial mindset (Table 1). The questionnaire was approved by the WesternNew England University (WNE) Institutional Review Board, and the students were informed of theirrights to not participate. Paired t-tests were performed on each question’s pre versus post scores withstatistically significant differences indicated by p<0.05. After the module, the students were also asked toprovide

ITL alsoencompasses a range of instructional methods including inquiry learning, problem-basedlearning, project-based learning, case-based teaching, discovery learning, and just-in-timeteaching4,5.The Kern Entrepreneurship Education Network (KEEN) was created by the Kern FamilyFoundation in 2005 as a collegiate initiative to increase the quantity and quality of U.S. engineeringtalent, specifically by integrating the entrepreneurial mindset into engineering education. Thereare seven student outcomes pertaining to the entrepreneurial mindset6: 1. Effectively collaborate in a team setting 2. Apply critical and creative thinking to ambiguous problems 3. Construct and effectively communicate

Dispositions toward increased confidence and mindset to recognize, evaluate and move toward opportunities. 2. Abilities to apply and defend business development processes to create a business concept for an envisioned solution that offers potential for a sustainable business investment. 3. Abilities to prepare and critically read financial documents, including a balance sheet, income statement, cash flow analysis and break even analysis. 4. Abilities to prepare to seek or obtain sources of capital applying knowledge about

assessment of “conceptual knowledge,” than all otherofferings.Both the project and homework assignments are fundamentally formative assignments designedto motivate and aid student learning. Grades are given more to encourage completion than forsummative evaluation. High scores on the project report were to be expected, since the studentswere encouraged to utilize the rubric to assess their own work while completing the project, andthey could ask the instructor and teaching assistant for specific feedback before handing in thereports. Further, they could earn up to 10 points extra credit for offering additional impactdemonstrating an entrepreneurial mindset (over 75% of the teams received extra credit). Yet highscores were also relatively easily

bringing the entrepreneurial mindset to engineering education. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2017 The rise of rapid prototyping in a biomedical engineering design sequenceIntroductionPrototyping has always played an important role in the design process as way to determineconceptual viability and iterate upon an idea. Over the last decade, the decreasing costs,improved accuracy, and wide-spread availability of rapid prototyping (RP) technology haslowered the barriers to early-stage prototyping. At universities, the result has been the rise ofmaker’s spaces, skill-based pop-up classes and rapid design challenges. In this paper, we explorethe history of rapid prototyping throughout the 1990’s and 2000

After a short lecture (sometimesaccompanied by an in-class activity, see Table 1), student teams use the lab session to work ontheir weekly design task. These assignments, as shown in Table 1, provide a step-wise path for thestudents to develop skills in problem discovery, concept generation, design iteration, Solidworks1 Curiosity is identified by the KEEN Network as central to the development of an ‘entrepreneurial mindset’ amongengineering students (http://engineeringunleashed.com/keen/).modeling, and final product presentation.
