authors attended a three and one-half day meeting called theIntegrating Curriculum with Entrepreneurial-Mindset (ICE) Workshop to help students developan entrepreneurial mindset. [1] During the workshop, the authors developed a set of learningmodules focused using KEEN’s model. The student must deliver a presentation and a writtenreport focused on the entrepreneurial mindset for a digital communication course, identified asEE 463. Several Entrepreneurial-Minded Learning (EML) activities prepared students for theresearch project and report. Although the senior and adult students were exposed for the first-time to the KEEN framework, they performed tasks to foster an entrepreneurial mindset based onthe following topics covered in six of the eleven

These are junior-level, project-based courses withLean Launchpad [2], [3] and I-Corps [4] as principal inspirations for their curriculum anddelivery. But while our students learned a great deal about product-market fit, design, andbusiness models, the course lacked content that provided direct learning about thestudents’ aspirations, professional growth, career planning.We realized that it might be possible to fill this gap by applying the courses’lessons ofdesign and entrepreneurship to each student’s own professional self. In a sense, eachstudent would be her or his own people group. To this end, we integrated design thinkingabout the students’ own lives into the

Both of these beneficial effects ofdisagreement only occur if students are willing to express disagreement with peers [1]. It ishypothesized that gender and power dynamics at play in team conversations affect the willingnessfor individuals to disagree with one another. Previous work has shown that students are morewilling to express disagreement in an online environment compared to face-to-face [2], but therole of gender in these disagreeing interactions has not been studied.Computer-supported collaborative learning (CSCL) environments have been shown to supportstudent

. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2018 Rethinking non-major circuits pedagogy for improved motivation1 IntroductionIt is no secret that student motivation is critical to learning. Put succinctly, students will onlyapply effort to learn if they see value in learning the material or skill at hand. This value maycome from a combination of one or more sources, such as the pleasure of attaining mastery of askill, the enjoyment of the material itself, the potential for better job prospects, or simply the needto earn a particular grade to keep a scholarship [1]. Many of these value factors are influenced bythe structure of our courses and the way we teach, and electrical engineering is

psychological qualitative research founded in the nurture side of the discussion, beginswith a suggestion we are born with two basic characteristics; the need to survive and the need toreproduce [1, pg. 23]. From these two basic instincts, psychologists and cognitive psychologists inparticular, suggest we have both an unconscious mind and conscious mind. The unconscious mind,sometimes referred to as our gut feeling, steers us from unsafe situations (survival instinct). Theconscious mind, on the other hand, allows us to think through or rationalize the situation, perhapscreating a more informed decision. But, our gut feeling, that emanating from our unconsciousmind, is always on, and providing that survival instinct. This concept of unconscious

There are several studies [1-3], including meta studies [4-6], that show theeffectiveness of PBL, especially in terms of increased understanding, motivating students,retaining students, and helping to bridge the gaps between the classroom and workplace​. ​Beingable to work on real-world problems in a group setting is an important, necessary step tobecoming a successful engineer; though, there is more to being a good engineer than simplybeing able to solve problems.

Two common models are: (1) partnerships with business programs for minorsand dual-degrees; and (2) business-topics courses targeted specifically at engineering and sciencestudents [2]. An

One promising strategy for incorporating humanities into STEM courses is tostrategically weave the individual humanities topics into existing courses. Toward this goal, thecollege has

A popular approach is the use ofsurvey instruments.

To facilitate student involvement in a lecture format, students must be prepared tocontribute to the discussion of new material.One common model for experiential learning is the Kolb Experiential Learning Cycle [1,2], whichhas four steps: 1. Introduction of new experience, 2. Reflection on this experience, 3. Abstractionof this experience, and 4. Application of this experience. An essential component of this cycle isallowing students the time to reflect on new experiences. If students are introduced to a new topicduring lecture, little reflection can take place prior to abstraction or application of that
