ABSTRACT

The idea of an engineer’s habits of mind is based on a logical desire that engineering graduates should be able to think and act like engineers. Attention is directed to attributes like curiosity, open-mindedness, resilience, resourcefulness, collaboration, reflection, and ethical consideration in the hope that they will underpin the learning required to make things that work, using problem solving, visualizing, systems thinking, and other adaptive processes. Signature pedagogy for enterprise education should be developed with those factors that unite the learning context of its students. For example, students of enterprise are quite likely to hold many naïve assumptions regarding the processes of creating new value and/or their enterprising abilities. Responsibility agreement relates to the understanding achieved between the learner, educator, and any other related stakeholders concerned with who needs to do what for the learning process to occur alongside the student’s exploration of their passion.
