American Society for Engineering Education, 2018 Integrated e-Learning Modules for Developing an Entrepreneurial Mindset: Direct Assessment of Student Learning AbstractIn an effort to develop an entrepreneurial mindset in all our engineering and computer sciencestudents, the University of New Haven is embedding entrepreneurial concepts throughout the 4-year curricula in their majors. This is done with the use of several short e-learning modulesdeveloped by content experts. The modules are integrated into engineering and computer sciencecourses by faculty who reinforce concepts through a related activity, project, or assignment.

Education, 2020 First-Year Engineering Students’ Interpretation of Curiosity in the Entrepreneurial Mindset Through Reflective PracticeAbstractThis study explores how first-year engineering students interpret Curiosity, one of the 3Cs of anEntrepreneurial Mindset, when they write about themselves as learners. In 2005, the Kern familyestablished the Kern Entrepreneurial Engineering Network (KEEN), a network of 45 schoolsdedicated to instituting an entrepreneurial mindset (EM) in undergraduate engineering students.From this EM, three main concepts were developed for success: Curiosity, Connections, andCreating Value, otherwise known as the 3Cs. Previous research regarding EM and reflectivepractices in an undergraduate engineering

Education, 2014Engineering Virtual Studio: KEEN Modules to Foster Entrepreneurial Mindset in an Integrative, First/Second Year Online Course1. AbstractEngineering is a field that interacts with its surroundings by applying science to practicalproblems. In developing future engineers, teaching the technical fundamentals is only part of thetask; engineering programs must also develop engineers that are able to apply those skills intothe real world. Example problems are sometimes shown in classes, but lack the interactivitynecessary to instill the skill in students. Introducing students to entrepreneurship directlypromotes creativity and marketplace connection while indirectly instilling connection to realworld problems and promoting scholarly and

Better design is assumed to mean a course more aligned with curriculum designmodels known to produce superior learning results in undergraduate students.

However, it is not easy for students to build upentrepreneurial skills within one course or a couple of courses in an already crowded engineeringprogram.
