Assessing student attitudes toward design and innovation Conference Paper uri icon

abstract

  • The authors present the results of a research project that investigated student attitudes toward design and innovation. The study was conducted using students from an engineering program and an engineering technology program. Of the ten items in the survey, engineering majors and technology majors differed significantly on three items. A personality assessment instrument was also used to determine if personality factors influenced student attitudes and beliefs within the major. The data show that personality factors do contribute to attitudes and beliefs.<>
