A faculty development workshop led by Dr. Baishakhi Bose, titled “Unlocking the Entrepreneurial Mindset through a Contextual Framing Protocol Using Art and Stories,” and developed in collaboration with Dr. Shukufe Rahman (The Ohio State University) and Dr. Tom Lucas (Purdue University), has been accepted for the 2027 KEEN National Conference (KNC27), taking place January 21–23, 2027, in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. This interactive workshop explores how art and storytelling can help engineering educators challenge assumptions, reframe problems, and foster the three dimensions of the entrepreneurial mindset (curiosity, connections, and creating value) in their classrooms.
