Abstract

 Faculty are continually seeking new methods to help students develop characteristics associated
 with an entrepreneurial mindset. Recently, games have emerged as a popular tool to foster an
 entrepreneurial mindset through experiential based learning. This article provides an overview of
 the development of a workshop designed to teach faculty about games, and how they can be
 leveraged to engage students. Similar to product design, this workshop has gone through several
 iterations incorporating faculty feedback throughout to reach its final form, which includes a
 community of practice.
