Thebusiness course did not encourage students to use the makerspace at any point during the class,and no physical prototype was expected that might have encouraged students to use the space.At the end of the semester after all teams had completed their deliverables and documentation,students were once again asked to complete the same survey from after the 24-hour design sprint.The only question changes to this second distribution of the survey (called the post survey) weremodifications that rephrased the free response as relating to the final project rather than theevent

faculty.We learnt from this pilot that planning and preparing for the classes to ensure a high degree ofinteractivity was critical.Our experiences in running this course also suggested that we should continue our interaction andengagement with the students, faculty and the college leadership about how to continue assistingthe colleges and students. One of the teaching faculty has started an entrepreneurship cluster andwill be continuing a monthly one hour zoom meeting to assist the faculty at the colleges to initiateentrepreneurship courses so that the colleges could meet the new AICTE requirements to teachentrepreneurship as part of the engineering curriculum to all engineering students.ConclusionsThe main conclusion of this pilot was that

, there is the risk of disclosing too muchof an invention or idea publicly, which will invalidate the ability to patent since it is ‘de facto’ inthe public domain. By simply filing a provisional patent application, which is far less expensive,the entrepreneur can adequately preserve their patent filing rights, while fundraising [31]. Oncethis process is reviewed and the freedom to operate is established, then the entrepreneur or start-up can plan the patent process.Figure 4: Freedom to Operate Flow DiagramShould I invest in a patent?For an entrepreneur or start-up organization, the patent question is more granular. Is it worthpatenting my invention or not? What is the return on my investment? What is the risk and/orconsequence if I do not patent

On the other hand, seniors hadten times the activation in areas associated with behavior control, uncertainty management, andself-reflection in decision making.5 Preliminary ERP investigationAs noted above, there are currently no ERP based experiments of engineering design andcreativity. Furthermore, as of date, our research has not found any ERP studies related toengineering in any aspect.

The MIH officers are also planning more events where all theMIH teams can discuss their projects with each other and build a stronger community.Closing RemarksThe purpose of this paper is to provide an example of how simple it is for an engineering professorto bring the 3C’s of KEEN into their curriculum. Students who participate in a MIH project are notonly enabled to pursue their curiosity, it is essential to the success of their projects. Students aresolving real engineering problems, so it is inevitable that they will be applying what they learnedin the

?Our immediate focus is on action behavior in an entrepreneurial setting. For example, given aparticular business situation, is a student more inclined to “jump right in” or will they study theunderlying fundamentals of the market opportunity and take a more measured approach.The trend in teaching undergraduates in a technical setting has certainly veered away fromdevelopment of full business plans to a more action-centered approach. To paraphrase SteveBlank’s famous dictum, we are telling our students to get out of the building. The businessmodel canvas (Osterwalder and Pigneur, 2010) is purportedly sufficient knowledge to take someaction.

phase.Conclusions: In future work, the researchers aim to develop tools to assess technical skill development. Ifthere was a way to demonstrate growth or improvement in skill development during the undergraduateexperience, it would serve two purposes. First, it could serve as a method to evaluate the technical workthat occurs in the design classroom, more fairly and with clear transparency to the students. Second, itwould allow students to see how their skills have developed over the course of their education. In general,differences among gender, 1st-generation and students with low- and high- engineering self-efficacy allsuggest that a variety of these activities should be planned intentionally to promote exposure to anddevelopment of technical skillsets

The structure was planned to maximise students’ interaction with thetopic and to be able to provide opportunities for multilayered interpretations. Timing-wise,the course was set in three week long cycles per section. In the first week of each cycle, theseminar part of the section took place, in the second week of the cycle there were theworkshops, and the third week was designated for preparing the deliverables.

planned educational interventions1–4. However, onechallenge faced by entrepreneurship programs is establishment and agreement on comprehensiveand well-validated assessment instruments. A meta-analysis by Purzer et al.5 found 51 differentinstruments in 29 journal and conference papers that focus on entrepreneurship. Most of theseinstruments evaluate entrepreneurship as a multidimensional characteristic. They use varyingapproaches designed to measure knowledge, skills, and psychological characteristics.Purzer found that while 67% of the instruments focus on skill assessment, only 27% focus onattitudes toward entrepreneurship. This suggests a gap on assessment instruments that explorethe mindsets that students use to employ their newfound skills

often,"Elevator in El Cortez Hotel in San DieIt was the janitor's idea. The famous El Cortez Hotel in San Diego provides an excellent exampleof the advantage of listening intently to employees at every level. The hotel management decidedto install an additional elevator to better serve their guests. Engineers drew up plans cuttingholes through each floor of the hotel. A janitor, who was concerned with this, made the commentthat this would make a great deal of mess. The janitor was told not to worry because the hotelwould be closed to guests during the construction. The janitor suggested, "You could build theelevator on the outside of the hotel." At the time, this architectural concept had never been donebefore, but after investigation by the
