practiced at developing objectives and outcomes. The project objectives andlearning outcomes for the summer immersion experience using the LLP methodology follow theprogram objectives and outcomes guidelines set by ABET [5]. Our program objectives andoutcomes are designed to support the overall goal of engaging students through innovativeengineering design and experiential learning.The specific objectives for the workshop are that students will be able to: 1. Conceptualize, analyze, design, implement, and evaluate engineering solutions; 2. Work effectively as a team member; 3. Communicate effectively through speaking, writing, and the use of presentation tools; 4. Adapt to technological changes and innovations to gain efficiencies in cost

there is no consensus at this stage, it is agreed that innovation isthe key and engineering is essential to this task….”Of the identified soft skills, engineering students are often most challenged to develop and honetheir skills in creativity and innovation. For engineers, creativity may be defined as developingnovel and original ideas with emphasis on their applicability to solving problems2, 3. This Page 26.748.2definition of creativity is more specific for engineering students than for students in other majors(i.e. art, music, creative writing, theater, etc.). For engineers to exercise creativity within theirdiscipline, they must emphasize

Contextualizing Inclusive Practices in EM PedagogiesInclusive curriculum signifies curricular practices that promote student success across allstudents [56]. The salient characteristics of inclusive practices that the authors have focused onin the third year core classes include representation of diverse STEM figures, providing safespaces for failure, promoting collaboration over competition, and supporting student autonomy.Each of these practices is founded in the literature as ways to support inclusive learningenvironments (e.g., [57], [58]).

For exclusioncriteria, all results were limited to peer-reviewed journals published in English if they fit all otherrequirements and studied underrepresented populations’ experiences or perceptions in STEMentrepreneurship. There was no time period specified in the exclusion criteria due to the limitedamount of literature published in STEM entrepreneurship so all research regardless of thepublication date was considered. Once all inclusion and exclusion criteria were applied to thisliterature review search and all duplicates were removed there were eight articles remaining to befurther explored

In each course, content is delivered via a short e-learning module outside theclass, and student learning is improved by reinforcing the content covered in the module throughclass discussions and contextual activities. The overall integration has the four main componentsshown in Figure 1. Students complete the e-learning module outside the class within two weeks.During the second week, students are asked to participate in an online or in class discussion. Thediscussion questions enable students to learn through peer and/or instructor interaction

How can you create a real world object that has those same functions using technology, computer science, and engineering? Using the tools that you have available to you such as the litteBits, Legos, paper, markers, etc try to create a prototype or your own working version of this enchanted object so that you can demonstrate how such works to people.

learning outcomes. While it is often assumed that participation inentrepreneurial experiences beyond the classroom are critical for developing the entrepreneurialmindset and entrepreneurial knowledge and skills20,27,28, these experiences are often clusteredtogether with little analysis of structure, levels of institutional support, or levels of studentparticipation, or. For instance, Duval-Couetil et al. (2012)20 used a wide range of“entrepreneurship-related activities” to compare the involvement of students who did and did notparticipate in entrepreneurship courses. These activities included the experiences of conducting amarket research, giving an “elevator pitch,” writing a business plan, participating in a non-creditentrepreneurship workshop

different from many other invention competitions in that teamwork isstrongly encouraged and the teacher is a vital part of facilitating the process. When studentsparticipate in the InVenture Challenge, they do not work alone at home; rather, they arecollaborating with up to two other student peers and their teacher is guiding them through anengineering design process. As a result, the InVenture Challenge is inclusive and diverse—abouthalf of K-12 participants are female and nearly 40% are underrepresented minorities.The contributions of this paper are two-fold. First, a model is provided for a K-12 innovationprogram housed at a university that is aimed at empowering underrepresented groups in STEMdisciplines by looking further down the pipeline

specific as using a new design tool or performing aspecific task (e.g., a weighted decision matrix); documenting and/or considering a new criterion,constraint, or focus area (e.g., users, marketability); or adhering to new project managementstructure (e.g., a set of milestones/deadlines).In some cases, these approaches were restrictive initially. For example, Hannah felt that thedocumentation aspect detracted from her technical design work, which was where she believedinnovation was occurring. We have this big design document... It's a 15 or 16 page document that we had to write about the project partner… So, obviously, we wanted to record what went on. Each failure, why it went wrong, things like that.
