mitigated.Second, the question of “What language should we teach our course in?” is asked of CS1 andCS2 instructors all the time. Courses can and do change their language(s) of choice based on thechanging needs of students. While the findings here suggest that a change in language may notcreate many challenges to students in downstream classes, it is important to recall the limitationsof this study. Many students have self-selected into pathways that indicate they are stronglyprepared to pick up a new language without much trouble. Not all students will be able to do thiswith ease. Nor are computing languages structured in the same way. An AP student with abackground in Java may transition better to a course in C++ than a CS1 student with abackground in

However, the AERO program has shown promisingresults for students through increased math placement and improved math completion rates forstudent participants who start in Pre-calculus/Trigonometry. It is unclear what aspect(s) of thisprogram has resulted in such outcomes, and if these outcomes will persist for future AEROparticipants. Further studies will be required to isolate various components of the program tounderstand their impact on these students’ math performance.

This study investigated which component(s) the survey claimed to measure, and towhich construct, self-concept or self-efficacy, the component was described to represent. Thecomponents and their associated construct(s) are listed in the results. Although the search waslimited to papers assessing self-concept, the search revealed papers that measured self-efficacyusing scales that the authors described as self-concept. So, it seemed befitting to classify bothconstructs in the analysis.It is likely that these components or sub-constructs would vary for

EM.IntroductionEntrepreneurship education has been regarded as an important component of undergraduatetraining programs in the last decade [1], including in engineering education [2]. For example,94% or above of faculty and academic administrators believe that students should have access toinnovation and entrepreneurship opportunities via electives and/or extracurricular activities,despite their personal engagement level in those opportunities [2]. Most respondents in the study,however, identify challenges to making entrepreneurship a core component of curriculum, with a“lack of room in curriculum” reported as the most common challenge [2].The author(s) acknowledge The Kern Family Foundation’s support and collaboration through theKern Entrepreneurial Engineering Network
