inspiring introduction, andcan be a clear illustration of how materials play a role in the world around them. It makesengineering both approachable and relevant. The science classes that high school students,college freshman and sophomores take typically present collections of theories and laws usingtechniques that do not foster creativity, experimentation and curiosity. As a result, studentsincreasingly fail to pursue careers in Science Technology Engineering and Mathematics (STEM).For the past 10 years the number of high school seniors who plan on entering an engineeringcareer has dropped more than 35%.1 Additionally, attrition rates of engineering disciplines havebeen as high as 50%,2 and minority students have been shown to receive less than 8

Using this capability, the progressof the lab or field experiments requiring a significant amount of completion time can be monitoredremotely without having to be present at the experimentation site. The author plans to furtherinvestigate this capability of LabVIEW in his next research. A fund request has been submitted foracquiring the data acquisition instruments needed for this research. The investigator also hopes to beable to compare this method of analysis to other available approaches to possibly choose the optimalmethod for remotely conducting lab or field experimentations. This research can have a greatpotential in monitoring and evaluating the health of structural members.AcknowledgementThe author would like to thank Mr. Ryan Mooney

of the frequency in which particular outcomes aremarked enables refinement and validation of the current construction of the taxonomy. Currently,the classification scheme is designed to mark outcomes using a binary system. For example, if“e-Portfolios” is covered in “Engineering 1,” then that outcome receives a checkmark (or a 1).On the other hand, if “e-Portfolios” is not covered, then the outcome is not checked (or is given a0). As mentioned from the applications of the scheme, plans to incorporate depth of coverage arecurrently in place.

It is not uncommon to encounter the thinking that “we are engineers, we arenot English majors.”1 Therefore, engineering students are often required to take a generalwriting course taught by English or Writing Departments to fulfill writing requirements

Conclusions and Future WorkThis paper described the author’s early efforts to develop a course module for integrating theentrepreneurial mindset into thermodynamics. This course module provides students not onlywith the understanding of how to apply electric-generating power plant theory, but also howdesign is integrated with, and influenced by, economic, socio-political, and environmentalfactors. All factors which are important to an entrepreneurially-minded engineer.To date the author has implemented the project into her course twice and plans to conduct a morein-depth study in the future.

The program consisted of three primary phases:(1) teacher training, (2) teachers returning and teaching their students, and (3) end of yearROV competition. The teachers were trained at the beginning of the year in what an ROVwas, how to build one (i.e., solder circuit boards, wire and water proof motors, etc.). Theywere also taught the engineering design process (EDP), and provided lesson plan materialfor the EDP, circuitry, buoyancy, ballasts, and water pressure and density.
