The WIC is kicked off with a challengestatement containing the criteria for winning the challenge. Then, teams design, build anddeliver – if necessary – their solution for that week’s challenge. At the end of each competition, ideas are evaluated and the winning team isdetermined. Winning team receive a prize of $100 per member plus a T-shirt with the WIClogo and the words “Winner” on the back. Also, all participants are encouraged to submit awritten reflection.

In particular how such literacy and competency are reflected in curricular and student activities. His interests also include Design and Engineering, the human side of engineering, new ways of teaching engineering in particular Electromagnetism and other classes that are mathematically driven. His education research and activities also include reframing and finding ways to connect Product Design and Engineering Education in synergetic ways.Dr. Benjamin Ahn, Iowa State University c American Society

forentrepreneurship and innovation. Although studies have analyzed how students perceive this typeof training, few of them have unveiled its influence on behaviors and career goals. The formativeuse of the assessment instruments employed is limited, so more efforts are needed to evaluateentrepreneurial training towards its continuous improvement. This article proposes a methodologyto involve students in curriculum evaluation so they become partners in curriculum delivery andteaching practices. To explore its benefits, we applied it on a Major focused on engineering design,entrepreneurship and innovation. During classroom sessions of three Major courses, a form wasused to generate individual reflections and collective discussions about course methods

During thatsemester, education changed from experiential face-to-face teaching to synchronous virtualeducation. In the presented model, we had to reflect on how sessions should be structured toteach content. The Module's design objective was to have the possibility of bringing the value ofthe face-to-face experience -focused on active methods from the constructivist educationalparadigm- to the virtual world. Besides, we had to maintain the expected learning levels andmake them significant. To analyze the students' perception of the Module's success, weadministered an instrument already used before.

Previous work25 defines the SBL as an environment where individual participantsact as both storyteller and audience member. In both of these roles, specific use of theconcepts of mindfulness48 and social proof39 provide a theoretical foundation and drawsfrom constructs in socio-cognitive psychology. In the context of mindfulness, the aim isto consciously create new categories and levels of awareness.

Thus, truly impactful innovations cannot be isolated to linear track constructs such aszero net energy or carbon neutrality, but must be addressed holistically as a complex systeminvolving diverse stakeholders and with outcomes that may include such metrics.1Training the next generation of leaders and professionals to tackle such challenges in today’sglobalized economy requires a pedagogy that reflects these complex themes and fosterscreativity, engagement and entrepreneurship required for innovation.

Structured interviews of covered the participants’ family background, their motivations forenrolling in their major, their expectations with respect to career (including startups), their attitudestoward risk, and reflection on the interview. In the course of the interviews, participants were askedto rate their risk tolerance and their interest in pursuing a startup. Analysis of the interviews suggeststhat the principal indicator of entrepreneurial intent was interest in a startup, that most students’perceptions of the desirability of startups are negative, and that

in basic humanneeds. Additionally, it is important to implement these innovations through social entrepreneurship andleadership efforts for achieving the desired societal impact. To apply the above principles effectively,students (especially the Gen-Z students) need to have a skill set in understanding the role of engineeringinnovations in a globalized society with an attitude of leadership to serve society [16], which was themotivation behind this class. Selected successful social innovations across the world were studiedthrough the lens of fundamental science and engineering along with the societal impact.

Workshop teams of facilitators and coaches structured the pivot to remote learningeffectively and efficiently, reflecting the entrepreneurial mindset that infuses the workshops.

The results of the interviews were assessed through thematic content analysis. Theinterviews suggest that (1) that students do not continue with their projects because they cannottake time away from the paying jobs that are supporting their education, (2) that studentscompleting their junior year do not want to take time away from their senior-year studies, and(3) that students completing their senior year do not want to take the risk of pursuing a startupwhen they could instead obtain a “real” job. Additionally, student startups appear to have beendiscouraged by their expectation in the

Design projects at this stage enable students to explore their creativity and practicetheir engineering skills early in the curriculum [12]. Additionally, reflective practice activitiesrevealed that first year engineering students resonated most with the concept of curiosity whenreflecting on themselves as learners, relating it most frequently as a motivator of their learning,part of their learning identity, and a path to
