,mechatronics and computer science, the curriculum design that emerges from this paper willserve as a multidisciplinary educational tool.IntroductionEngineering education has been largely the same for decades: students sit for a lecture, dohomework, and then take an exam. However, as technological advancements bring attention tonew methods of teaching and learning, many fields have begun to re-evaluate how to best impartknowledge to ensure that graduates are competent and well-prepared for their role in theworkforce. Significant declines in enrollment over previous years have also indicated a need forreform. Additionally, the COVID-19 pandemic has presented a unique challenge for engineeringcurricula that rely heavily on lecture-based content delivery

A better understanding ofthe barriers that result in students dropping out of STEM fields is essential for increasingengagement and retention of STEM undergraduate students. In this regard, a growing body ofresearch demonstrates that psychosocial factors such as STEM self-efficacy, sense of belonging,intelligence beliefs, and grit are associated with STEM outcomes such as engagement andretention. In this review paper we examine how these key psychosocial variables (STEM self-efficacy, sense of belonging, intelligence beliefs, and grit) impact engagement and retention ofundergraduate STEM students.

best practices and beliefs about extrinsic motivation have been failing for decades --and that it is time for a new approach?2. High Employee Turnover (Employees move on for different reasons): With the absence of Deming's SoPK lens, high levels of turnover should be expected because employees are not engaged, nor really a part of the team. Research shows that high pressure tactics, used by some managers to demand or control certain behaviors of employees, increases the voluntary turnover [10]. Absence of Deming's Leadership approach means managers cannot really tap into the talents of people by setting up learning PDSAs. Lacking an understanding of the variation between people means that managers are taught to believe they can

As explained by Carol S.Dweck, a change in mindset requires effort, practice, and challenging tasks [7]. Regardless ofwhether it is the entrepreneurial mindset or the growth mindset, practice and more practice canchange one’s beliefs and attitudes, which in return can instill and reinforce the entrepreneurialmindset. Common methods for integrating practice, reflection, and feedback into the curriculumcan be through semester-long scaffold projects, journaling, peer feedback, and formativeassessments.#4: Curriculum Design for Best
