Paper ID #38780Using an Entrepreneurial Mindset and Biomimicry-Based Design to BetterEngage First-Year Engineering StudentsMr. Randy Hugh Brooks, Texas A&M University Howdy, After 23 years in Telecom building LD, internet, and email platforms and networks, I observed that the front line personnel that I was hiring didn’t have what I considered to be skills that they should be bringing to the table. I began investigating why, and that led me to high school. Alas, I began my journey in Education in 2010 inhabiting the classrooms of Lovejoy High School, where my two daughters attended. I redubbed my

application of math and science, we mustprepare engineering students to carry out their work with these responsibilities in mind. One wayto do so is implementation of the Entrepreneurial Mindset (EM) which cultivates the significanceof curiosity, making connections, and creating value. An EM promotes information gathering,inter-topic connection making, and constant valuation of an engineer’s product or service and theways in which it supports society. While an EM appears business venture-centered at firstglance, its support and application in the engineering classroom has been growing due to itsrelevance to the role engineers play today [8], [9]. For example, corporations have been callingon higher institutions to graduate more global engineers that

water resources engineering and urban hydrology. ©American Society for Engineering Education, 2024 Early Design Sprint Impact on Engineering Identity and Entrepreneurial Mindset in the First YearAbstractThis Complete Research paper describes the impact of a design sprint early in a first-yearengineering course on engineering identity and the entrepreneurial mindset (EM). In anintroduction to engineering class, many first-year students do not see the connection of small,one-off lab activities, to their engineering identity and the EM. The first year is a critical time forstudents to develop their sense of self and identity. The purpose of this paper was to determine ifintroducing a

Much of his research involves design education pedagogy, including for- mative assessment of client-student interactions, modeling sources of engineering design constraints, and applying the entrepreneurial mindset to first-year programming projects through student engagement in educational software development. Estell earned his BS in Computer Science and Engineering degree from The University of Toledo and both his MS and PhD degrees in computer science from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.Dr. Stephany Coffman-Wolph, Ohio Northern University Dr. Stephany

throughout themodule. In the first class meeting, students first watched the 21-min 1999 Nightline episode,“Deep Dive” [3], where members of product design firm, IDEO, redesigned a traditionalshopping cart in five days. After watching the video, students discussed design strategies thatthey saw IDEO team members using, while also pointing to key elements of IDEO’s workplaceculture that help support and sustain high levels of innovation at IDEO. Creativity heuristics anddesign mindsets were also introduced that included lateral thinking [4], analogical reasoning andproductive thinking [5] as ways to stave off limits to creative thinking like idea fixation [6] [7]. During the first two class meetings, students working in teams of four were
