. Afirst step is to ask students to repeat task 2, “Do something unusual”, themselves regularly, andusing each pass to go one small step further.ConclusionWhy was it worth thinking about creativity and entrepreneurship in engineering education? Theexperience made by using the learning scenario “Shark Tank” confirms what was written before:To some extend, students can learn to become creative or an entrepreneur. But there are aspectsof both entities that cannot be learned by applying a straightforward learning path under the timeregime engineering education offers, such as courage, non-conformity, openness etc. It isimportant to have these insights in mind, if all the prominent statements about the need ofengineers who change (or even maybe save

in mind is the major driving force in this entire process. Engineering students in an academic setting do not have the environment, theresponsibilities, the demands or the interactions with other members of an engineering team,nor do they face the real-life situations and challenges that a practicing engineer faces everyday. Therefore, I decided that my mentorship must have as many professional engineeringaspects as academic ones. I built my mentoring role to be part coach preparing students fortheir big game after graduation, part advisor to help them choose the right courses for theircareer path, part trainer to improve their skills, part counselor to help them in hard times, partcheerleader to celebrate their successes and, above

However, this presents significant challenges to K-12 educators, most of whom havelimited experience with doing authentic science or engineering and many of whom are notcomfortable with teaching units without normative answers [2].

However, it is commonly overlooked that Bloom’s and Tyler’s theories are firmly rooted inthe tradition of behaviorist psychology and as such are based on further fundamentalassumptions in this field, which at that time exhibited quite strong epistemological andontological views.

In a series of experiments “students whoassumed a constructive rather than a critical attitude toward available information were able toproduce a larger number of creative solutions as well as more original ones” (Torrance 1977).Torrance’s guidelines, as well as the process guidelines presented earlier in the paper, shoulddrive the planning of any (every?) classroom assignment, with the goal of imparting creativemindsets to students. Engineering students must learn to approach problems with an open mind,unconstrained—though certainly influenced—by textbook solutions.

In one study, students created their own competition during a design projecteven though the performance of their design wasn’t a major factor in their grade.
