On thefirst day, as shown in Figure 1, students introduced themselves, and played a few icebreakergames to get to know one another a bit better. From there, course logistics were presented by theinstructors; what the students as Mentor TAs would be expected to do, how much time theycould anticipate needing to do the job well and what the course schedule would be in regards totheir responsibilities.

following conclusions are warranted: • Student’s performance at the beginning of semester is highly correlated to their performance throughout the semester. This enables developing an early alert system by monitoring students at the beginning of semester. • Early semester homework assignments, mid-term exams, and in-class practice problems can be employed as Students Performance Indicators (SPI) for developing the prediction model. • Among the considered SPIs, the in-class practice problem indicator that reflects the active involvement of students in class exercises showed the highest regression coefficient.

, thathelping students to achieve appropriate learning outcomes is a complex process [11]. Gunstonesupported the use of the laboratory as the setting for students to gain knowledge [12]. Hofstein andLunetta suggested that if students were supported with enough time and opportunities forinteraction and reflection, that meaningful learning would happen in the laboratory [11]. However,students are usually engaged in technical activities with few opportunities to interpret and statetheir beliefs about the meaning of their laboratory work [12]. It is, therefore, crucial to provideopportunities that encourage students to ask questions, make design inquiries, and suggesthypotheses. Consequently, it is necessary to provide frequent opportunities for the

First, the scope and depth of business concepts presented to engineeringstudents is inevitably narrower than it is for business students exposed to a portfolio of conceptsduring the course of a four year business degree 11. Second, the societal and cultural excitementsurrounding technical entrepreneurship has resulted in media constructions of entrepreneurs andentrepreneurship that may not accurately reflect the characteristics or experiences of the generalpopulation of “real entrepreneurs”10,12.Within this context, understanding the misconceptions students have constructed aboutentrepreneurial action and business concepts is critical to entrepreneurship education.

[3]For STEM students, particularly female students, self-efficacy – defined as a student’s belief inhis or her own ability to achieve academic success – is one of the greatest predictors of successin academic coursework. Female students, in general, rate themselves with lower self-efficacy inengineering coursework, even when they are, in actuality, achieving the same or better gradesthan their male counterparts. [7] According to previous research, there are a variety of factorsthat influence student self-efficacy and academic self-confidence, including perceived lecturerdistance and intimidation.
