pitches just-in-time for theircompetitions. One of the realizations coming from the capstone design experience inentrepreneurship is that students need to be exposed to entrepreneurship principles earlier in theirstudies in order to allow them the opportunity to select an appropriate capstone project and learnthe principles of entrepreneurship in time for the competition.Another popular approach used by the KEEN schools to work entrepreneurship into existingcourses was to use educational modules to introduce appropriate topics. A module typicallycovers one aspect of entrepreneurship (such as intellectual property or idea generation) that ispresented in one or more class periods. Ideally, a module contains a lesson plan and some typeof assessment

, disruptive technologies, intellectual property, entrepreneurship, proposal writing,project planning and control, etc.By adopting a simplistic view for a moment one can reason that there is a hierarchy that can beestablished between intelligence, creativity, innovation, and entrepreneurship, where the formeris a necessary condition for the latter. In general, intelligence and subject expertise may lead tocreating ideas (ideation). Some of these ideas may lead to innovative problem solutions orinventions. Usually, creation of a working physical (sometimes improved) prototype ends theinnovation process and starts the entrepreneurial process (commercialization). Creativity, ingeneral, can be quantitatively measured as a number of novel ideas. In

As a result, this research contains no randomized controls and therefore lacks theability to make causal inferences about the effect or impact of educational experiences.

When pushing faculty towards the promotion of entrepreneurship, they make astrategic decision: (1) do not force professors who do not wish to enter to or do not feelconvinced with the entrepreneurship world; (2) talk to them with concepts they understand; and(3) communicate that since entrepreneurship is taught through different disciplines, it should notbe seen as a single concept, which also need
