Mindset: Tools for What and Why  \nCHERYL A. BODNAR Rowan University Glassboro, NJ  \nAND  \nCORY HIXSON  \nColorado Christian University Lakewood, CO  \nABSTRACT  \nDespite an increased focused on developing and understanding engineering undergraduates’entrepreneurial mindsets, best practices related to assessing this mindset remain nascent. In an attempt to evaluate concept mapping as a potential assessment tool for entrepreneurial mindset and identify the knowledge, skills, and attitudes (KSAs) first-year engineering students associate with this mindset, we asked students to create “entrepreneurial mindset” concept maps1. These maps were scored using the Integrated Rubric for Scoring Concept Maps (Besterfield-Sacre, et al., 2004)– a holistic tool for evaluating concept maps’ organization, comprehensiveness, and correctness.  \nThrough the application of this assessment strategy, we not only demonstrated the promise of concept mapping, but also captured 1) the KSAs students believe are relevant to entrepreneurship and 2) students’ perspectives regarding the connections between KSAs. Our findings afford program directors and educators the opportunity to prepare educational activities that meet first-year students’ program/course objectives and build upon students’ current understanding. More generally, assessment using concept mapping offers educators a window into students’ mental models and the baseline understanding needed to enhance student learning.  \nKey words: Assessment Tools, Concept Maps, Entrepreneurship  \n1 Concept maps are graphical tools that can enable individuals to organize their thoughts, perceptions, and theories surrounding a topic.  \nADVANCES IN ENGINEERING EDUCATION  \nCapturing Students’ Perception of Entrepreneurial Mindset: Tools for What and Why  \nBACKGROUND  \nEngineering Entrepreneurship Research  \nThe field of engineering education has seen the number and breadth of engineering/technologyfocused entrepreneurship programs grow, especially in recent years (Byers, et al., 2013; Duval-Couetil, Shartrand, & Reed-Rhoads, 2016; Gilmartin, et al. , 2014; Besterfield-Sacre, et al. , 2011; Shartrand, et al., 2010) . Beyond “state of the field”(Gilmartin, et al., 2014; Shartrand, et al. 2010) and program/ course descriptions (e. g. Mendelson, 2001; Ochs, et al. , 2006; Standish-Kuon & Rice, 2002), engineering entrepreneurship research is an evolving and nascent discipline (see Besterfield-Sacre et al., 2016; Duval-Couetil, Reed-Rhoads, & Haghighi, 2011; Duval-Couetil, Reed-Rhoads, & Haghighi, 2012; Shartrand et al. , 2008; Yasuhara, et al. , 2012) . Specifically, engineering entrepreneurship-focused research has sought to understand areas including:  \n• entrepreneurship knowledge and content within engineering (Besterfield-Sacre, et al. , 2013),• assessing engineering entrepreneurship (Purzer, Fila, & Nataraja, 2016; Bilén, et al. , 2005),  \n• engineering students’ interest in entrepreneurship (Duval-Couetil, Reed-Rhoads, & Haghighi, 2012; Rodriguez, et al. , 2016),  \n• gender in engineering entrepreneurship (Morton, Huang-Saad, & Libarkin, 2016),  \n• engineering entrepreneurship’s ability to meet ABET 3(a-k) criterion (Ochs, et al. , 2006; Duval-Couetil, et al. , 2015), and  \n• faculty members’ perspectives on entrepreneurial mindset and teaching entrepreneurship (Hochstedt, et al. , 2010; Besterfield-Sacre, et al. , 2014; Zappe, et al. , 2013) .  \nWhile some of these existing studies sought to understand perceptions, attitudes, and beliefs, the existing literature is limited in direct attempts to measure students’ entrepreneurial mindsets or beliefs. Therefore, this work sought to 1) evaluate concept mapping as a means to measure students’entrepreneurial mindsets or beliefs and 2) answer the question: How might first-year engi","cbCaiocNlVJGkqA3","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiocNlVJGkqA3","pdf",476389,11,"English","# Abstract\n# Background\n## Engineering Entrepreneurship Research\n# Assessing Students’ Entrepreneurial Mindsets\n# Methods\n## Study Design","[{\"question\":\"What assessment tool does the paper evaluate for entrepreneurial mindset?\",\"answer\":\"The paper evaluates concept mapping as a tool to assess students’ entrepreneurial mindsets and beliefs.\"},{\"question\":\"How are the students’ concept maps scored in the study?\",\"answer\":\"Concept maps are scored using the Integrated Rubric for Scoring Concept Maps, assessing organization, comprehensiveness, and correctness.\"},{\"question\":\"What does the study aim to capture about first-year engineering students?\",\"answer\":\"It captures (1) the knowledge, skills, and attitudes students believe are relevant to entrepreneurship and (2) students’ perspectives on the connections among those elements.\"}]","Capturing Students’ Perception of Entrepreneurial Mindset - Tools for What and Why - Fall 2018 | PDF",1792065909,28]
