camp with learning blocks creates a totally immersiveand engaging environment for the learner. At the same time, these learning blocks allowfor entrepreneurial concepts to be embedded inherently. The character traits of successfulentrepreneurs, as defined by state school standards, are adaptability, creative thinking,ethical behavior, leadership, positive attitude, and risk-taking.1 These character traits willalso be focused on in terms of outcomes.Mater ials and methodsEntrepreneurship and deeper learning outcomes have been a recent focus of industry andeducation with many new studies outlining how these skill sets can substantially changethe outcomes of students.

habits of mind.Engineering habits of mind refer to the values, attitudes, and thinking skills associated withengineering and include systems thinking, creativity, optimism, collaboration, communication,and an attention to ethical considerations. Wing (2006) also connects computational thinking toengineering thinking, as she defines computational thinking as not simply programming but theoverlap between mathematical thinking and engineering thinking. Likewise, Barr andStephenson (2011) compare computational thinking capabilities across computer science,mathematics, science, social studies, and language arts. For example, learning to implement aparticular algorithm in a computer science context would be analogous to following anexperimental

Lastly, the text-based messages posted by students in their studygroups are analyzed and compared based on the measure of TF-IDF (i.e., term frequency-inverse document frequency). TF-IDF is broadly used by the content-based recommendersystems to compare the similarity between two pieces of textual contents [17-18]. The morefrequently two students use the same set of keywords, the more similar they are considered. Itshould be noted that, in consideration of ethics, the content analysis of group discussions canbe disabled in practice. The instructor is enabled to select whether he/she prefers to place themost similar/different students in the same study group.Figure 7 illustrates the system

Harmayer’s study focused on the librarians’ preference of collections related to pro-choice over those representing pro-life. Quinn (2012) has addressed both the psychological andphilosophical reasons for bias. The latter is related to librarian’s commitment to an ethical codewhereas the former can be both conscious and unconscious. The banning and challenging ofbooks and media has also been an act of censorship whereby works on controversial topics areplaced on a list. Implicit behind this explicit and consciously biased selection of books is thecovert bias against target

There should be no room for opinions, feelings, and/or hiddenagendas. Therefore, a mutually agreed upon evaluation scheme must be designed at thebeginning and the principles of it must be entered in the MOU. Additionally, the MOUmust have a clause that would underline the consequences in case a party unilaterallyterminates the program without substantiation.Some of the critical areas where there may be pitfalls are listed below: 1.

itself. As effective engineering leaders need to demonstrate effectiveness as engineersfirst, four skills needed to be an effective engineer are technical competence, interpersonal skills,work ethic, and moral standards [41]. One problem, though, is that because successful engineeringstudents demonstrate proficiency in a highly technical field, they consequently also tend to hold ahigh value for technical competence. Effective engineers, then, may not value the development ofskills needed for success as leaders.The Communities of Practice model then points to other important leadership outcomes that resultfrom participation in, and subsequent mastery of, a particular practice. While research indicatesthat some successful engineering leaders

Indigenous knowledge fills the ethical and knowledge gaps in Eurocentric education, research, and scholarship (p. 5).This excerpt from Battiste provides a better understanding of how Indigenous knowledge is notonly complementary to the Western conceptualization of science, but it is also a way of life.Indigenous knowledge does not separate the individual from the history, culture, andsurroundings (e.g., the context). Western science and knowledge, on the other side, try toseparate the object (science) from the subject (the scientist). Thus, Western science rhetoric hascreated a false perception of objectivity and neutrality while perpetuating the idea that science,and

work ethic and team commitment played a stronger role in overallsuccess. Moreover, several studies [7, 10, 11] found students in teams with a performance goalorientation (cf. learning goal orientation [12]) tended to divide tasks along gender-correlatedlines in ways that undermine individuals’ learning goals and reinforce minority status. In sum,students’ self-perceptions, their mental models of success in engineering, and how theyformulate their identities are critical to their persistence and success in engineering [13, 14].Women and under-represented minorities (URM, def. non-white, non-Asian) are often therecipients of subtle messages of non-belonging, thus creating an inhospitable environment whichinhibits the formation of professional

CATME takes a moreindividual-centric approach, querying instructors to complete subjective surveys about theirstudents. Combining peoples’ schedules, work ethics, and interests with the survey data, CATMEprovides holistic teams, but requires many inputs. junto, in contrast, cares only about preferencedata, and optionally factors in student GPA while balancing teams.

In addition, a lab notebook is required to document allexercises with an emphasis on data integrity, and ethics of recording and presentation. Althoughanalysis associated with most lab exercises is done within the lab group, the analysis from fourexercises is done individually. Combined with individual effort from the lecture portion of thecourse, 50% of the grade is individual while 50% is team based.
