AB  - In this full paper we analyze the results and feedback from two years of interactive training modules on the Entrepreneurial Mindset (EM) for instructional teams in an engineering education department. The second year’s training module was modified based on feedback and updated goals from the previous year’s training. Modifications included a greater emphasis on creating social, environmental, and economic value, the inclusion of specific examples of EM in curriculum, and language adjustments. One specific change was an emphasis on inclusivity and accessibility rather than the more general concept of user needs. Both iterations of the training also included open-ended questions about encouraging an Entrepreneurial Mindset.

The outcomes of this paper include an analysis of trainee responses to case scenario questions and open-ended prompts. A comparative analysis of responses from prompts shared across the two iterations of training is also presented. Results show a significant change in how UTAs respond to open-ended prompts between the two training iterations with a substantial increase in responses related to environmental, economic, and social value as well as accessibility and inclusion. Additionally, an analysis of feedback indicates a positive shift towards perceptions of EM. This paper begins to outline evidence-based guidelines for training instructors to develop their own EM and encourage their students’ EM.
