The research team is already committed tocontinuing the research in a longitudinal study.The implications for practice, in the words of the program director, include that: (a) it isdemonstrated how some undergraduate students may be at a level of maturity that can bechallenging when pursuing customer discovery - such students benefit less than those advancedstudents with a more mature view of innovations; (b) students entering the I-Corps Site programcome with different needs, and it could be beneficial to identify those needs before entering theprogram, and (c) the ecosystem where the

Using this, the literature was collected based on a setcriterion, compiled into a database, summarized, and discussed.

The polls will be applied on-line using Google Forms, where they will be asked perception questions related to performance and learning comparing the possibility of use SS versus the restrictions on their use. These questions are: o Did you develop and program your own SS or use SS developed by others? o How deeply do you know the way the routines work inside the SS? o In the change of routine scenario, are you able to modify the SS process to apply change of variables, formulas, and concepts? o In a special design case, where you must go off-routine, do you

relates to field-effect transistors (FETs). The right response is “C” whichemphasizes how a transistor’s threshold voltage is affected by several variables, includingtemperature, manufacturing process, and the transistor’s physical dimensions (length and width). Figure 1: Three items related to semiconductor materialsOne kind of digital logic gate, the NAND gate, is the subject of Question 10. There are two inputs(A and B) and one output (Q) on a NAND gate. A NAND gate behaves as follows: it onlyproduces a 0 (LOW) output when both of its inputs are 1 (HIGH). Because the output of a NANDgate is only 0 when both inputs are 1, “A” is correct.3 ManufacturingTwo questions on the survey, as seen in Figure 3, focus on the
