, theprograms available to students clearly developed the skills and knowledge necessary for venturecreation. There seemed to be a gap between the cultivation of skills and knowledge for newventure creation and the engagement of students in actual new venture creation.Looking more broadly, this phenomenon does not seem to be limited to the University ofVirginia. According to data, the number of entrepreneurship programs offered at institutions ofhigher education has been skyrocketing since the 1970’s [1–3]. However, there has beeninsufficient evidence to support that an increase in traditional curricular entrepreneurshipeducation leads to an increase in venture creation [4,5].

Some studies found no significant differences between groups who had labexperiences verses groups that did not.

Consider, for example, the followingexchange, in which one student describes a disagreement about the placement of the catapult inthe 6th grade design challenge: R: Did you feel comfortable sharing your ideas with the others in your group? S: Yes ma'am. R: Why do you think that is? S: We was all buddies and stuff. She let us choose groups. We got to choose our buddies. I felt comfortable because, you know, there was really no target answers. It was just an idea. R: Was there a time when there was any kind of disagreement in your group? S: Yes. One time me and this

It was also made clear which process alternative(s) were viable, if any (Outcomes 1 and 4). f) The proposal was written in a logical format. There were minimal typos and formatting errors, the figures were clear and readable, and the references were cited correctly (Outcome 1).Students were assigned the prompt on the first day of class and were allowed eight weeks tocomplete the
, undergraduate design canvas can improve both student learningand successful product design.Another objective of the work is to develop a “meta-canvas” approach that is comprehensive andrigorous, yet customizable, such that faculty can develop a canvas to suit their specific course(s).Customizability for different faculty approaches is vital, but an underlying metamodel used alsohelps make it clear where the boundaries to customizability lie. Existing canvases, with theirinherent complexity, may be better suited to more advanced courses, and a customizable canvasapproach may broaden the impact of the canvas concept from first-year design through capstonedesign and beyond. Faculty may utilize different approaches or have different learning

Presumably,improved instructional support would mitigate the damaging impact of negative perceptions such asstereotype threat (Steele & Aronson, 1995) or avoidance orientation (Midgely, 2001) that limitengagement, and at the same time support student tendencies related to cultural norms and practices.Future research that can untangle the complex combination of these factors can provide new insights intohow to support UREM’s in engineering education contexts.

Students are given a schedule of when mini-tests occur at thestart of the semester. In this phase, discussion on Piazza is frozen, and students are given theopportunity to study each other’s questions in preparation for the mini-test.Stage 3 - Quiz: In the third phase students are required to take the test (individually), where thequestions in the quiz will be only from

Additionally, an important logistical element of the activity centered on the timingof the mock career fair in coordination with the actual career fairs on campus.

Thislogistical consideration provided ease in confirming employer attendance.
