is to be in an environment where they can interact with like-minded peers. Saturday talent development programs can be an alternative strategy for children who needmore advanced content in a specific field. Children are usually taken to programs outside ofregular schools, such as university summer camps and Saturday talent development classes.These types of programming offer several benefits to students, such as exposure to advancedcontent in diverse subject areas, highly qualified instructors, and interaction with like-abilitypeers in a learning environment where the students feel safe to be themselves7. Special talentdevelopment programs can also provide affective gains in participants’ self-esteem, self-efficacy,and academic motivation

matters. (p. 123)A separate but related phenomena to creativity is innovation. Specifically, based on extensiveinterviews with serial innovators, Dyer, Gregersen, and Christensen (the authors of theInnovator’s) DNA postulate that innovators tend to be avid questioners, observers,experimenters, and idea networkers. They framed these four phenomena as the “behavioraltendencies” of serial innovators. In alignment with the Innovator’s DNA, we identify innovationas much more than a function of the brain but also a function of behaviors [7]. In the context ofengineering design, to be an innovative engineer requires the act of doing or creating.We recognize that behavior is fundamentally contingent upon one’s inner drives, motivations,values, self

50studies, Dean et al. have extracted an overarching consistency from such studies, in whichcreative work is measured using four scales where the originality or novelty of an idea must bebalanced by its flexibility or workability, its relevance to the solution set, and its specificelaboration [20]–[22].In this study, however, we are less interested in the eventual creative product and more interestedin the self-efficacy, or change in design confidence gained by student engineers through theworkshop process. While the metrics described above may serve to uncover changes in creativequalities of consecutive designs, they will not necessarily reveal changes in a student’s creativeapproach, their confidence in approaching open-ended work or their self

people with different skillsets ascompared to laboratories, creating an environment with greater social interaction. Morocz et al(2015) found that influence of peers can decrease anxieties around making because makerspacescan function to level the playing field by modeling different degrees of comfort with differentmaking processes. Further, Bandura’s theory posits that the social interactions can increasestudents’ self-efficacy. Having shared and communal making opportunities dissipates fearsaround making and increases student confidence in the process [1].Engineers in many disciplines are most effective when, in addition to technical knowledge intheir field, they have enhanced knowledge of the capabilities of processes such as milling,welding

for medium or large companies. It was further found that “those who had taken one ormore entrepreneurship courses showed significantly higher entrepreneurial self-efficacy on anumber of measures”.   The growth of entrepreneurship programs in engineering undergraduate education has beenstudied by Shartrand & others 3 finding that “the vast majority of programs were labeled asminors, concentrations or certificates” rather than integrated into the core curriculum. Thisresearch has also provided detailed categorization of the models being implemented to provide a“landscape” by clustering types of opportunities and the perspective by which they are taught4.Much of the delivery of entrepreneurship education is via courses, however it is argued

Since the essence of this competency wasalready encompassed in other competencies it was deemed redundant and eliminatedWithin the relational aspect, two competencies were removed: accept feedback about strengthsand weaknesses and collaborate effectively. The accept feedback competency was removed asfeedback is a form of suggestion for improvement, and this competency was seen as the self-efficacy component that is a precursor to the competency adopt suggestions from other

Themes include both cognitive, design-relatedchallenges, such as scoping and problem framing, and personal capabilities representingstudents’ self-efficacy, such as time management and maturation. In addition, we noted theimportance of the students’ self-monitoring of their own ability, and the ways in which thisemerged in group and individual work.Scoping and Problem FramingOne of the fundamental challenges in addressing ill-structured problems is the negotiation of anappropriate problem frame, which describes the scope of work and allows the designer tounderstand the dimensions of the solution space16,24.

gather thestudents’ perceptions. Others have used Likert-type scales in the context of design assessment; afew examples include a decision-making tool for prototyping9, self-efficacy surveys in a designcourse10, and learning outcomes surveys for pre-capstone teams11.Despite the ubiquity of Likert-type scales within the design literature, there are a number of keychallenges that researchers have experienced while using them. Studies have found that peopleanswering questions using Likert scales may preferentially choose options on the ends of the scaleinstead of choosing less extreme answers12. Other studies have shown that misuse (ormisunderstanding) of the midpoint on the Likert scale can confound results; if someone wants toavoid a question, or

This study follows fourth-year mechanical engineeringstudents in their capstone design course and explores the effects of different students’ learningexperiences on the outcome of their capstone design project.

Twenty-nine associate deans for undergraduateeducation (or the equivalent) from the 31 participating institutions returned surveys.Using the data collected from each group, the research team constructed scales that measurevarious curricular emphases, classroom and program experiences, and attitudes about education.Factor analytic techniques identified the number of latent constructs underlying sets of items inorder to reduce the number of items necessary to adequately measure those constructs and toassess each factor‟s meaning.
