Creative thinking in design: Students will be able to brainstorm and think creatively both individually and collectively as a group, to achieve alternate design solutions. 2. Teamwork and communication skills: Students will be able to form and work in teams to effectively communicate their ideas and design alternatives in written and oral formats. 3. Project planning and management: Student will be able to use project-planning tools to plan tasks, timing and coordinate design activities

The idea is that the leaders explain the rulesclearly, show how to use the equipment as necessary, and lead the game. One crucial task of theteam in this step is to inspire students to find alternative solutions and try these solutions in thesystem. The student team leaders need to observe and record patterns of behavior, changes in thesystems, results, and outcomes.Step 3.

Drexel University aimed to solve noise andbehavior issues in the library by installing a Courtesy Clerk, a full time staff member whomaintains a “safe, pleasant, and courteous atmosphere in the library” [7]. Most academic libraries with noise issues are also facing space and design challenges.One of the more common problems occurred as libraries shifted to function primarily as studyspaces, or were rebranded as “learning commons,” with open floor plans and fewer—ornonexistent—book stacks [8].

reasonable level of familiarity with a concept. At this level, the engineer is familiar with an idea, but lacks the knowledge to specify and procure solutions without additional expertise. For example, an engineer might recognize that a particular architectural plan poses significant construction difficulties without having the expertise to devise improved construction or design alternatives.  Level 2 (Understanding) implies a thorough mental grasp and comprehension of a concept or topic. Understanding typically requires more than abstract knowledge. For example, an engineer with an understanding of professional and ethical responsibility should be able to identify and to

Grintner Report, the applied,practical approach to engineering education that nurtured young innovators was replaced by amore theoretical approach6. This theoretical approach was fitting for a time when engineeringcorporations were large and sought workers to simply execute their plans. However, society isnow characterized by organizations that generate wealth from the innovations of their workers7.Indeed, employers seek graduates that can apply their knowledge, have the ability to innovate,can communicate effectively, work in teams and understand contexts and constraints8,9, all skillstypically addressed by entrepreneurship education. Such skills also prepare students to start theirown companies based on their own innovations10, which also serves
