: this topic focused on reliving a special moment of achievement and recognition; • Introduce your readers to a mentor who supported you: this topic often highlighted the contributions of a teacher, parent, or other mentor who helped to guide the student.Students wrote a different story every week, first as a draft (followed by a review session withstudent peers and the instructor) and then as a revised text. Students did not receive a grade fortheir weekly writing; instead, the course focused on writing feedback that could allow the studentto develop their own writing process.In a required junior-level Thermodynamics course and in two upper-level elective courses inCivil and Environmental Engineering, students were asked to write

. Additionally, we noted that assignments and projects alsosupported connections to community members (often through the use of guest speakers or eveninternships) and connections to future employers (again through the use of guest speakers andinternships). Furthermore, in the high school curricula, there was a strong focus on developingcommunication skills (through both written and oral presentations), developing collaborationskills (through many group projects and peer evaluation opportunities), and also a connection todigital literacy. In fact, entrepreneurship education programs at the high school level were oftenlinked (in both advertising materials provided by the schools as well as in language form syllabi)to 21st Century Skills development

research productivity (e.g., papers published). However, weacknowledge that excellent undergraduate research experiences often lead to peer-reviewed publicationsand help faculty career progression.In partnership with the Kern Entrepreneurial Engineering Network (KEEN), a workshop has been held forfour summers to help faculty integrate the entrepreneurial mindset (EM) into their work with researchstudents. We are interested in exploring the impact of this work on participation and sharing our findingswith the broader engineering community.Research questions: 1. How can faculty use an EM to adjust their approach to research activities and student mentoring? 2. What structures/practices from the workshop help faculty adjust their approach to

. iv. Midterm business model report is a summary of the business model creation and entrepreneurial activities in a progress report technical writing format. The students will document the progression of their business model and how their initial business model hypotheses were validated or rejected (backward-looking summary). Also, the students will provide a forward-looking summary to provide insights over the next phase of the project. v. Teamwork effectiveness assignments ensure that all team members contribute fairly and effectively in all entrepreneurial activities. The students are required to evaluate their peers four times throughout the semester using the team creation/evaluation software

with my time until the very end. I felt as though I started early enough but towards the end, I started to become rushed which is unpleasant when you want to do your best in the creation of this design. I would change the amount of work and the kind of work I will do in the session I work. At first, I was just doing the fun stuff like coming up with ideas and working on rough prototypes which left all the harder report writing for the end. In the future I would like to more evenly balance these two aspects of many projects.”4.2 Flexing the creativity muscleFor reasons such as the open-ended nature of this project as well as sufficiently structured stepsinvolved in the

. Additionally, Iron Range Engineering had allmajors undertake entrepreneurial projects, resulting in the development of a business plan[12].Beyond the confines of specific majors, Loh et al. [13] discuss a second-major option forundergraduates at the National University of Singapore (NUS). This initiative allows studentsfrom any major to participate in multidisciplinary project work aimed at cultivating aninnovative and entrepreneurial mindset. At the master's level, the University of Duisburg-Essen offers a Master of Arts in Innopreneurship, designed to equip students with the skillsneeded for self-employment or innovative roles within established companies [14].Whereas the focus of our writing up to now has been on the form of innovation
