Sarah Clarkand Susan Chinburg3 created a model for comparing groups of students who received differingtypes of research instruction within a single large-scale course, allowing others to adopt theirmodel to compare a set of students receiving library instruction with a control group that did not.Finally, Virginia Young and Linda Ackerson8 developed a program to conduct bibliographicevaluation of large numbers of student papers by trained staff members, allowing a larger samplefor evaluation than a single librarian or instructor could manage individually.

Through our work,we used these findings to support the development of EML curriculum in the first year at ourinstitution.This work was guided by the overarching research question: In what ways do entrepreneurialminded learning (EML) experiences affect first-year engineering students’ motivation andidentity development? Specifically for this paper, we are interested in answering the sub-researchquestion: How do faculty incorporate EML into their first-year engineering courses?BackgroundOur first-year engineering program uses a common content, project-based approach. Thisapproach to the first year is common among other first-year engineering programs (e.g., [6]–[10]). Regarding EML in the first year, some universities incorporate

with the shrinking size in the relationship betweencharge, voltage and capacitance Q = C V is at the root of this sensitivity since at acapacitance of 10-17F or less, V is likely to be larger than the thermal voltage for a singleelectron moving from one side to the other1. Such effects cause degradation in theperformance of CMOS technology ultimately limiting the device densities attainable withtransistors. These limits have led to the growing importance of developing alternativebottom up approaches such as nano-technology which allows scaling at the limits ofmolecular dimensions. QCA and nano-wires are two such approaches and our interest inthese two areas has been guided by the PI’s prior experience in the field of QuantumInformation

connectedness. Another essential outcome of STEM doctoral mentoring is assistingstudents in developing an identity as a scientist.Science Identity TheoryThough science identity receives less attention than underrepresentation, its development,particularly in racially minoritized students, nonetheless is an important aspect of creating moreequitable outcomes in STEM [29]. One must consider the stereotypical ideas of what guides theunderstandings held by self and others. Identity speaks to how we see ourselves and how otherssee us. Within the science community, there is a normalized visual representation of what ascientist 'looks’ like. Scientist stereotypes are perpetuated when the faculty and studentpopulation are white resulting in the neglect of the

Following these recommendations, the field of engineering educationsaw research on the development and implementation of several learning innovation andinstructional practices. However, while there has been extensive research examining barriers andaffordances to the adoption of teaching practices and curriculum, much less work has been doneon assessment instruments. In addition, research highlights there is generally resistance on thepart of faculty members when it comes to adopting new practices. This resistance often stemsfrom faculty feeling as though that their input was
