Results from that summer workshop indicate a range of approaches fornew engineering pathways for pre-service teacher preparation will be required to reflect theparticular culture of the universities. Potential approaches identified include:• The use of a minor in STEM education to complement an existing engineering degree, this reflects additions to existing undergraduate engineering degrees• Post-Baccalaureate degree programs –this minimizes impact to undergraduate engineering degrees• Working with educational technology programs –they tend to have greater flexibility

Mathematics and Statistics serve as foundation for all programs inScience, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM); therefore, lower success inmathematics can also affect their decisions to follow a STEM career [12], but also underminetheir success in engineering courses [13], [14]. The issue of anxiety and lack of confidence intheir abilities can be worse for female students who are often raised under the stereotypic viewthat females are not good at math [15].Enhancing math problems with RL examples can provide deeper understanding of math conceptsand skills [5], [3].

As a result, entrepreneurship education has spread laterally to non-businessdisciplines such as engineering, technology, science, and arts [10]. This expansion has ledto an evolution of entrepreneurship education from the business school model of venturecreation to focus on developing skills in graduates that foster innovation in their careerpursuits which may or may not involve self-employment [11]. Particularly inengineering, several curricular and co-curricular entrepreneurship programs have beeninitiated which typically use student-centered, experiential learning approaches to impartcontent knowledge and more importantly

approach based on dynamic modeling is proposed. This approachprovides the opportunities for students to learn about geometry through the embedding ofgeometric behaviors into models and then testing these behaviors via dynamic change of themodel. An advantage to dynamic modeling is the ability to provide visual embodiment to theunderlying logic of the constraint strategy, providing direct feedback to the student and astraightforward mechanism for assessment by the instructor. Also, this approach mimics thereal-world activities of engineers and designers executing 'change orders' on their virtualproduct models. As such, this approach is better aligned with larger goals of better problem-solving abilities in the technology and engineering workforce
