entrepreneurship education program at the university. Throughexploratory factor analysis, the ESE-E demonstrated a 7-factor solution. Factors includedproduct ideation, business planning, customer discovery, team and network formation, ideapitch, people and human resources, and finance. Additionally, correlational analysesdemonstrated that these seven factors were related to each other positively. This means that ifstudents are confident about one entrepreneurial-related skill described in this instrument, theyare likely to feel confident about other entrepreneurial-related skills described in the instrument.Further and interestingly, students with a growth creative mindset tended to have high self-efficacy for product ideation, team formation, and people

[26] tested a hypothesis that similar to the growth and fixedmindsets associated with intelligence, there would be growth and fixed mindsets related toteaching ability. Their study revealed that a growth mindset about one's teaching abilitypositively predicted greater work engagement mediated by enjoyment. Other studies have

In this paper, we describe our research methodology in detail, from the study’s design to data collection, analysis, and triangulation of multiple data sources. This work contributes to the literature on the use of the ethnographic approach in engineering education research and offers a practical example that demonstrates how these approaches can improve our understanding of novel and emerging pedagogies.Keywords: Ethnography, Triangulation, Pedagogical Practices, Story-Driven LearningMotivation The ethnographic approach, rooted in anthropology and sociology, is a qualitativeresearch method designed to comprehensively understand phenomena as they

The scaffolding to emphasize prototyping and adoption of aprototyping mindset may help as a pedagogical tool [33]. Artifacts that are created in thesecourses reflect tangible evidence of activity. From the idea to realization, there are means todescribe the role, purpose, and creation of prototypes. Gerber & Carroll [19] describe theconnection and process of prototype creation. Houde & Hill [20] discuss different types ofprototypes as what do prototypes prototype (function, looks-like). Makerspaces also provideadditional context for the tools, mindsets, and community of practice [21-23, 11].Design

align with the researchresults in Venkatesh, Fong, and Yeter [44], where researchers investigate how engineeringundergraduates consider ethics within their engineering courses. Similarly, Venkatesh et al.incorporated the EDIPT model to guide students through a newly designed engineeringcourse [45]. Findings show that most students were fixated on professionalism and client-centered responsibility, such as meeting customers’ requirements via problem-solving. Thus,it is evident that the EDIPT model is highly relevant in Asia as the concept and problem-solving mindset embedded in the model align with the existing skillset and critical thinkingskills of the students in Singapore.In the Western context, American scholars have utilized a case study
