Likewise, in a 3-year long longitudinal study of18 four-year universities, Pascarella et al. [3] found that only academic (research experience,project based learning, etc.) and classroom activities have positive impact on student persistence.Interestingly, per their findings, other on-campus experience such as volunteer work,employment, and participation in inter-collegiate athletic experiences had a negative effect onFG students’ success in their academic performances.Similarly, higher education literature also reports that self-efficacy level among the FG studentsis lower compared to

The formativeuse of the assessment instruments employed is limited, so more efforts are needed to evaluateentrepreneurial training towards its continuous improvement. This article proposes a methodologyto involve students in curriculum evaluation so they become partners in curriculum delivery andteaching practices. To explore its benefits, we applied it on a Major focused on engineering design,entrepreneurship and innovation. During classroom sessions of three Major courses, a form wasused to generate individual reflections and collective discussions about course methods

In2010 this group was low in total number but the percentage of these women leaving engineeringduring their freshmen year was high.
