Because CArE 5619 uses a “straight scale” without a curve, and because “required”assignments resulted in a minimum grade of “70 points = C”, students were made aware that thesuccessful completion of all optional assignments included in Module 7 would raise a student’sgrade from a “C” to a “B” (i.e., 70+10 pts).Details of the “story board” / “poster” communication exercise, including a grading rubric, areprovided in Appendix D.Table 2.

However, it seemsthat some of the more frequent codes such as Innovation and Business Skills were nothighlighted by entrepreneurs in previous studies. This could be due to students' lack ofexperience in the field and the fact that students are only learning about entrepreneurial mindsetin the classroom, as opposed to entrepreneurs who have real world experience with the benefitsof EM.Faculty in Zappe et al.’s study said that they believe that

There are strong evidences form the literature that including the soft skillssuch as management, entrepreneurship and leadership can boost the retention and enrollment inengineering programs. Entrepreneurship education has been found to boost GPA and retentionrates of the engineering students, provides the students with the skills and attitudes needed toinnovatively contribute to the existing organizations and pursue their own ventures, and has thepotential to address current and anticipated workforce demands.

results were summarized in [29] as follows. A majority of the respondents thought that theirpromotion was a result of their hard work alone. Half of the respondents indicated that theirprogress might have been easier if they were male, and half of them stated that children were ahindrance to progress. Female students were largely prevented from pursuing higher education until the 19thcentury. Before then, female seminaries were the primary alternative for women who wished toearn a higher degree. However, women’s rights activists fought for higher education for femalestudents, and college campuses turned out to be fertile ground for gender equality activism [30].In the early 1900’s, at the University of London, all degrees were available to

, “Students’ agency beliefs involve how students see andthink about STEM as a way to better themselves and the world along with being a critic ofthemselves and science in general [20, p. 939]. The critical thinking perspective is intimately tiedto engineering agency beliefs, where students become “evaluator[s] of STEM as well as becomecritics of themselves and the world around them through self-reflection” [39, p. 13]. In essence,agency beliefs in this framework are based on a spectrum of how students view engineering as away to change their world or the world at large.Most agentic frameworks in engineering education used qualitative research methods. However,Godwin and colleagues [40] and Verdín and Godwin [41] used quantitative measures to
