Themost difficult phase for both current students and alumni was „in school (coursework, funding,adjusting with culture, etc)‟. Alumni ranked securing job after graduation as equally difficult tothis. As shown in graph, „obtaining a job after graduation‟ was one of the most difficult phaseschosen by alumni, as this option was not provided to current students

Multi-level Multi-dimensional Perspective with Mental ModelsAbstractEntrepreneurship education programs typically include a large range of student outcomesincluding knowledge, skills, and attitudes as well as outcomes that go beyond the classroom.Because of the extent of inclusions and the broad range of effects, assessing the effectiveness ofentrepreneurship education programs is frequently challenged. Based upon Block and Stumpf[1]’s idea of “hierarchy of criteria” for evaluation, the main purpose of this research is to providea multi-level multi-dimensional perspective that systematically investigates factors related to thesuccess of entrepreneurship education programs. Such programs, in turn, can stimulate and bringsuccess to new

When we learned calculus in the 1960’s, we spent hours painstakinglyplotting curves and intersecting surfaces, and even then it was difficult to visualize what reallyhappened (in physical terms) when parameters in equations were changed. Today, with a touch ofa button or two, students can visualize much more complicated equations in an instant; they canplay around with changing different parameters and thus gain a much deeper understanding of whatthe equations (and their parameters) signify. Once students master the fundamental thinking skills(listed in Table 2), they will be free to concentrate on the process
