takestime to be realized at public institutions. If a requisite changes for an engineering course,the timeline for degree completion and the ability for students to take a full-time courseand to receive financial aid/maintain their international student status can be affected. If anew track within an existing curriculum is added at the community college level and thefour year school is not informed about this development, the students in such programsmay not get the benefits that are associated with a joint/dual degree program. Anunderstanding that these programs are not initiatives nor driven by grant funding, but thatthey are core to the students and to the colleges involved are essential to the integrity andsustenance of these degree programs

Student performance was greatlyimproved when writing use cases, especially clarity and completeness which was reflected inimproved projects. Quantitatively, the same mindset objectives were assessed in other coursemodules as part a larger curriculum wide effort in Engineering. The numerical results indicatethat the modules in this course outperformed other modules in the curriculum for most of themindset objectives. Ultimately, the results indicate these types of modules may play an importantrole in entrepreneurial mindset development for computer science students.IntroductionThis paper describes a set of modules designed to

For example, once students have experienced the results of integerdivision, the binary representation of integers will be introduced in order to explain theunexpected observed behavior. Once students have seen that counting (integers) up by 1’s willeventually yield a negative number, the binary 2’s complement will be introduced.

The authors have utilized the case studies in both ways and it issuggested here that the more complex case studies should be assigned as home works whilerelatively narrow and focused case studies may be discussed as in-class exercises. It should benoted here that appropriate theoretical framework needs to be established via lectures to lay thefoundation before case studies based on the relevant topics are given to the students. In classquizzes are then utilized to assess the effectiveness of student learning where students gain thenecessary theoretical
