KEEN promotes engineering education by fostering anentrepreneurial mindset in students: “… beginning with curiosity about our changing world,integrating information from various resources to gain insight, and identifying unexpectedopportunities to create value. An engineer equipped with an entrepreneurial mindset is able tocreate extraordinary value within any type of organization. KEEN schools identify, nurture, anddevelop entrepreneurially minded engineers who will contribute to our national economicprosperity and secure individual fulfillment through a lifetime of meaningful work.”(engineeringunleashed.com)The UNH KEEN modules are intended to

groups to uncover their own thought and biases before discussing difficult orcontroversial topics surrounding engineering innovation with the class as a whole. While thecourse is taught specifically with engineering design in mind, the course has attracted studentsfrom varying majors which has fostered collaboration and creativity in idea generation. Thecombination of critical thinking methodology with innovation concepts has led students to notonly expand their knowledge of potential applications of engineering, but has lead severalstudents to initiate communication with faculty members regarding their ideas for researchopportunities, innovation competitions, and initiated their own projects via applying forUniversity Innovation Fellows

Given that we accept 45-50 students into theprogram from a pool of 70-80 applicants, it does not appear that we are “over-selling” theprogram with our current advertising efforts.DemographicsLooking back at the first two cohorts, we achieved our goal of diversity by major. In general, theproportion of majors represented in the entrepreneurship LLC mirrors the distribution of majorsin the full student body, Table 3. To provide some context for sample size and analysis, we haveapproximately 2,200 undergraduates and only offer degrees in engineering, math, and science.There are no liberal arts degrees offered.

If the students don’t believe they are creativeand do not get to practice creativity, enthusiasm for continuing engineering study and retentionin engineering education could suffer.On the first day of the course, the students were asked about their personal view on their owncreativity, the role of creativity in engineering, problem solving, teamwork, and leadership.After the course, the same survey was administered. The survey was quantified using a 5-pointLikert scale. The course enrollment was low

Theworst-case for a start-up is to run out of resources and close-up shop while preparing the bestpatent portfolio to go to market. The lean start-up movement has realigned priorities somewhatwith keeping the customer discovery and value proposition at the ‘top of mind’ along with speedto revenues.In academia, the push for science and engineering faculty to generate IP has significantlyincreased over the last decade.

However, with this definition, comes challenges inassessment of the modules which is designed to incorporate “creativity” since a creative design is onlyassessed by the value it adds over time. However, this definition of creativity ties in congruently with theKern Entrepreneurial Engineering Network’s framework on Entrepreneurial Minded Learning (EML)which focuses on the value creation. Therefore, the KEEN framework itself is used as an assessment toolfor the module which will be discussed in the forthcoming sections. The assessment of the student workwas done based through poster presentations to external clients and which was judged by a retired F-35 testpilot.2. Ideation, Disruption and Aha

analyzing the 26 concept maps and creating one master concept map, it wasfound that EM is composed of character traits, attitudes, and behaviors, such as thinking outsideof the box, being open minded, being a risk taker, and critical thinking [27].The final stakeholder that is important to consider are students. There have been limited studieson students' definitions of EM in the engineering context, though a few studies have addressedbusiness student perspectives on entrepreneurial qualities. Some common attributes ofentrepreneurs given by undergraduate business students in the School of Economics at theUniversity of Turku in Finland are courage, social skills, supporting others, serving society, andmaking an effort to attain common goals [28].

Student team projects were either assigned or self-generated. The final product of the project was a functional product prototype supported by a written report describing its business and engineering aspects.

Society for Engineering Education, 2021 Developing a Direct Assessment for Measuring Students’ Ability to Make ConnectionsAbstractThe integration of entrepreneurial minded learning (EML) into engineering courses to developstudents’ entrepreneurial mindset (EM) is growing in popularity through efforts such as the KernEntrepreneurial Engineering Network (KEEN). As the integration of EML occurs, it is importantto assess students’ development of an EM to inform the efficacy of course changes. FollowingKEEN’s definition, we operationalize EM as the ability to create value, make connections, andbe curious. While we acknowledge the importance of all aspects of EML, in this full paper, wefocus on assessing students

EML broadens entrepreneurship education by incorporating a focus onmindset and skillset while attempting to measure the knowledge of students, how students think,skills, and attitudes toward learning [12].

In some instances,usually when working in teams, estimating is about creating a shared understanding of a givenrequirement, and keeping the big picture in mind. By keeping things simple, and not gettingcaught up in precise details of the final results; estimation puts everyone on the same page towork toward a common goal. Although the estimates will not always be exactly right, they willbe consistent.5.
