Paper ID #38883Applying Entrepreneurially Minded Learning to the Design and Fabricationof Soft Robotic Fish with Native American Engineering Students.Dr. Monsuru O. Ramoni, Navajo Technical University Monsuru Ramoni is an Associate Professor of Industrial Engineering at Navajo Technical University, Crownpoint, NM. He has M.S. degrees in Manufacturing Engineering and Management and Industrial Engineering from the University of Birmingham, United Kingdom, and Wayne State University, Detroit, Michigan, respectively. He received his Ph.D. in Industrial Engineering from Texas Tech University, Lubbock. His research focuses on
onassessing the impact of telling the stories, by the storytellers who recorded for the podcast. In thefuture, we may assess the impact on listeners.Table 1. Survey questions for pre- and post-experience surveys. Pre-experience survey questions: 1. Think for a second about what makes you, you. Fill in the following blank with the first five things to come to mind. 2. The rest of this survey will refer to STEM professionals. STEM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math. You should think about yourself as a professional in your primary major. As a STEM professional, you could be a Scientist, Biologist, Chemist, Civil Engineer, Mechanical Engineer, Computer Scientist, etc. Do you agree or disagree

celebration. The hands-onexperience includes engineering a light-up party hat, building a musical instrument, andinvestigating the science of color. With these activities in mind, an evaluation of Camp Inventionwas designed to understand student outcomes associated with science and math interest, scienceand math anxiety, and problem-solving and inventing skills.MethodsResearch DesignThis research study utilizes a mixed-methods approach, incorporating both quantitative datathrough paper surveys and qualitative data through focus groups and interviews. The researchwas guided by the following questions: 1. What is the overall program impact on participants’ confidence towards STEM? 2. To what extent is gender and socioeconomic status associated with
beliefs about math, English, science, and social studies. Other research interests of hers include the formation of career aspirations, the school- to-work transition, and the differential participation in science, technology, engineering, and math fields based on social identity groups such as gender and Racial/Ethnic identity.Dr. Nathalie Duval-Couetil, Purdue University at West Lafayette Nathalie Duval-Couetil is the Director of the Certificate in Entrepreneurship and Innovation Program, Associate Director of the Burton D.
