The stated goal of the Center was to identify the needsof the students and of the marketplace, develop curriculum innovations and teaching methods,test the innovations, and integrate the successful results into the engineering programs. Drawingon his experience developing and teaching courses in creativity, innovation, andentrepreneurship, Matson applied those lessons to the creation of the

simulations became useful tools for teaching mostly business management and businessstrategy. Today, simulations continue to be used extensively in the training of militarypersonnel 2, medical personnel 3, and engineers, as they provide opportunities in which futuredecision-makers can practice making decisions in a risk-free environment.Shaw 4 reviews literature on the benefits of using simulations in the classroom and suggests thatsimulations: (i) provide “students with a much deeper understanding of differing perspectives”,and (ii) that they can lead to students engaging in “affective learning.” Affective learning refersto students being able to change their perspectives and attitudes on issues at hand, experiencingempathy for others, and more

in communicating with potential stakeholders (potential funders,collaborators, managers). This may be accomplished within the context of research projects, ormore broadly, within the context of leading projects and organizations. Fundamentally, when a 10school teaches its students to develop and communicate a vision, they are teaching them to stayfocused on the big picture, even while working on intricate details of a technical project. This isa valuable leadership skill that is central to the pillar of CC. Second, we suggest engineering schools continuously encourage students to Adopt aPlatform Mentality.

One ofthe factors that make this story of particular research interest is that it focuses on the environmentin which the change is occurring and the administrative and political structures necessary for thatchange to be sustainable. This research, then, sheds light on the systemic barriers to change inhigher education and builds on previous work, including Kolmos and de Graaff’s10 summary ofinstitutional change in higher education and the complexities associated with movement fromtraditional teaching systems to

Partial experts think that the point-to-pointcommunication and cooperation in the engineering practice surpass the scope of pureknowledge teaching and it more reflects inheritances of scientific idea and scientific taste. Through a series of discussion, we continuously improved the construct definitions thatverified each construct throughout research.
