KEEN “3Cs” - Curiosity, Connections, and Creating Value.ReflectionIt is a practice of human nature to reflect on experiences of the past and present. However, in thecase of reflection, most people fail to recognize the use of these experiences to aid in the future.True reflection “on experience can be framed as an intentional and dialectical thinking processwhere an individual revisits features of an experience with which he/she is aware and uses one ormore lenses in order to assign meaning(s) to the experience that can guide future action (and thusfuture experience)” [1]. It takes various elements and perspectives to achieve reflective thinking.Schon simplified reflection down to two categories known as “reflection-on-action” and“reflection

Principles areestablished based upon prior entrepreneurship research that identified critical entrepreneurialskills and are the following: 15 • Opportunity Recognition18 ( Mitchelmore, S. & Rowley) • Presentation Skills 9 (Hood and Young) • Entrepreneurial Competencies 18 (Mitchelmore, S. & Rowley) Mitchelmore, S. & Rowley cite the ability to recognize and evaluate a new ventureopportunity as a dominant entrepreneurial thinking skill 18-20. Acquiring the resources to takeadvantage of the recognized opportunity is equally important to entrepreneurial successes 1,18 andthis skill rests fundamentally on your persuasive presentation skills, both oral and written, and isconfirmed again by Mitchelmore, S. & Rowley’s

. IntroductionResearch in engineering education over the past 15 years has shown that US undergraduateengineering student enrollment in decline while the demand for qualified engineering graduatesis expected to increase1. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) predicts a 22% growth injobs for fields related to Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) between2004 and 2014 (U. S. Department of Labor, 2005)2. It revealed that fewer than 40 % of studentswho enter college intending to major in a STEM field complete college with a STEM degreetoday3. The engineering graduation rate is even lower for Texas Higher Education institutions4.Research by ACT indicates that fewer than one in five 12th graders have both high interest inSTEM and high

This data point was not considered when comparing differences in gender due to the smallsample size but was considered for analysis of 1st-generation and low- vs. high-engineering self-efficacy.Eighteen students reported being 1st-generation, thirty-nine were not.

document any conflict of interest.Forming a CompanyThere are several types of companies (LLC, C-Corp, S-Corp, etc.) and your SBDC probably hasresources to help explain the differences. An LLC is quick and easy to form either through yourSBDC, online via sites like LegalZoom.com, or through a startup-friendly lawyer, and can beconverted to a C-Corp later. However, if you plan to take on venture capital early, you may wantto start with a C-Corp. Some incubator and accelerator programs facilitate this process, and otheruseful startup sites have templates to help with the paperwork [12].If you are a solo founder at this point, the paperwork is straightforward. However, if you haveco-founders, you will likely want to set up an operating agreement early

experiential learning format.Although Besterfield-Sacre et al. (2012)’s work presents a tool for assessing entrepreneurialknowledge, the inventory is a measure of students’ self-assessed knowledge rather than a “directmeasure of measurement of the actual skills and knowledge” (p. 8). We argue that this approachdoes not completely capture students’ understanding of entrepreneurial concepts due to emphasison only students’ familiarity with concepts and terms, rather than their ability to internalize andapply entrepreneurial knowledge. In other words, overall there is almost no research that uses adirect measure of entrepreneurial knowledge to assess the impact of entrepreneurship programson student learning. Guided by this gap, in our study, we examined

(Lichtenstein & Plowman, 2009;Sullivan & Pines, 2016). It is a shared discipline of collective action. As participants follow thesesimple rules, new interactions take place and new outcomes emerge. Using simple, but not easyquestions, participants develop both a shared outcome and a project to move toward theiroutcome. The project represents a short-term experiment. Participants learn whether they canmove toward their shared outcome through the collective action they design. The process isiterative: as they learn, they move forward to complete some projects, adjust others and keepgoing, and take on new projects to reach their identified strategic outcome(s).

theworkforce [6]. There are many explanations of individual excellence and entrepreneurialmindset [7,8, 9] and multiple studies about engineering students [10,11,12] with an emphasison a high need for achievement and potential for break-through innovation [13]. Since the late1990’s engineers and designers have been exploring moods and feelings and their connectionto better solutions [14]. And while research links entrepreneurial status to personality theory[15] and personality to leadership [16], few studies focus on the impact of emotion oninnovative success. This paper aims to begin filling that gap with a preliminary experiment toshow how students experience a story of innovation. The experiment is inspired by Radcliffe President Mattina
