found in France, the U.S. educational system clearly drawssignificantly on entrepreneurial energies, going back well before the present neoliberal era. Onthe other hand, Cold War science policy has also contributed to the diversity of U.S. academicinstitutions (Geiger 1993, 2015). While this diversity has allowed the U.S. educational system tobe highly productive in generating a highly versatile and skilled workforce as well as newknowledge, this can also frustrate efforts to craft uniform visions and standards withinengineering education. Even when new standards are established and enforced, the entrenchedpatterns of institutional diversity will often harbor discontent with the status quo, leading tofurther rounds of reform.The background

module, as it is cost-effective (approximately $25 perboard), widely used, and open source, with an active community of educators and hobbyistssharing content online [9]. The fully online Arduino module has the benefit of having minimalimpact on the overall course format, and it allows students to work at their own pace through thelessons, as there is likely a wide range of incoming knowledge for students in this first yearcourse. As there have been urgent calls for post-secondary institutions to produce engineers whonot only have a sound technical background but are also entrepreneurially minded and criticalthinkers [10], [11], this module was designed not only to provide students with technical skills,but also to inspire curiosity about other

In 2009, he worked with a national development team of engineering educators to develop the 100% PBL curriculum used in the Iron Range model. He has successfully acquired and managed over $10 million in educational grants including as PI on 7 grants from NSF. He has been in the classroom, teaching more than 20 credits per year to engineering students for more than 25 years. His specific areas of expertise are in active learning, faculty development, and learning community development. He has been awarded the 2012 Progress Min- nesota award, 2012 Labovitz Entrepreneurialism award, and 2012 Innovator of the
