And PBL pedagogical techniques as “students” in the workshop  Experience examples of entrepreneurial mindset course integration  Analyze unfamiliar situations and open-ended problems using various methods to define the “true” problem statements  Interact as part of an interdisciplinary team with members from multiple institutions and backgroundsThe workshop was made up of 23 faculty representing different engineering disciplines from 11different universities. While the author has over 28 years of experience in ABET accreditedengineering programs, there were many new pedagogical techniques that the workshopparticipants experienced in individual and group activities over the three

University of Dayton such as student-centered learning, active learning, co-teaching,problem/project based learning, entrepreneurial mindset learning, flipped classroom, etc.,are largely focused on undergraduate classes but not in graduate classes comparatively. Thispaper documents a teaching model where the homework, projects, activities, lectures andindependent studies are all integrated on a single platform (portfolio) in an endeavor tomotivate graduate students to practice sustainable learning (long-term learning) andpromote critical thinking skills. The author implemented this model for the first time in agraduate compressible flow aerodynamics class with the “portfolio” as a platform ofintegration. The paper also discusses the application of

Table 1 was taken in the end of the semester in theaerodynamics course to determine if the set learning outcomes were met. The results from the assessment Page 7 of 44indicated that the set learning outcomes were met using the integrated teaching pedagogies and multipleactive learning modules in the course. Some of the modules that was used in the aerodynamics course isshown in later sections of the paper. Table 1 Likert Scale Assessment on Learning OutcomesEach learning objective was also matched with Kern Entrepreneurial Engineering Network (KEEN’s)proposed skillset/mindset.
