  2. What do entrepreneurship educators care about? How can we educate students to: • Start New Ventures • Create High Growth Firms • Solve a broad range of societal problems entrepreneurially • Adopt an entrepreneurial mindset Blenker, P et al. (2011)

  3. Exploring Teaching ‘Methods’.. Blenker, P et al. (2011) • How-to-do-it (business plans) • Pairing entrepreneurship (teams/patents/IP etc) • Finding motivations (financing etc) • Entrepreneurship as a method for all • Teaching ‘through’ entrepreneurship

  4. Entrepreneurship as a ‘method’

  5. Teaching week plan (SPG8015) • Pre-School assignment • Day One: Defining the teaching • Getting to know each other • How has our thinking changed • Testing the traits • Identifying problems • Day Two: Entrepreneurial Lab • Food for thought scenarios • Application • Testing the traits • Day Three: Creativity and Ideas • Techniques • Discussing problems • Developing solutions • Presenting solutions • Day Four • The role of entrepreneurship in the economy and society • Rise Up Apprentice-style challenge • Day Five: Entrepreneurship on the inside • The role of innovation in business design; Prof Max Robinson (EiR) • The business case • Entrepreneurship legacy theory (tying the knots); Prof Allan Gibb

  6. ..their Value in Achieving Teaching and Learning Outcomes “Fully engaging classes with interactive methods I have not seen before” “we developed cohesion and interview skills without realising” “Presenting innovative teaching methods, guest speakers and assessment has allowed us to learn even more effectively than more whilst enjoying our contact time.” “As Master's students my peers and I envisaged that we had experienced the most innovative methods we were going to. However, in week 1 of our course we were all pleasantly surprised”. “Katie managed to keep a group of Master's students engaged for a whole 2 weeks - an impressive task!” “Even the theory was delivered in an interesting format” “activities encouraged critical thinking, evaluation, creation and innovation whilst ensuring the whole group were engaged with a stimulating activity”. “methods that would stimulate all learning preferences” “We have taken some of the methods out of the class room to complete other assignments and group tasks demonstrating that the learning outcomes are beyond that of solely SPG 8015”

  7. Discussion Topic • Is it because I teach Enterprise and Entrepreneurship or do students ‘apply’ innovative thinking from my modules to technical modules to gain a ‘professional’ outcome? • Questions I ask: • Are you a ‘professional X’ when you get a degree? • Do students create a University journey? • Could these methods achieve your outcomes to any extent?
