Interactive Models and Resources outside the Classroom

Abstract

What are the key themes of an entrepreneurship program and what are the implications? We discussed this at a brainstorming session at the Price-Babson College Fellows Program, REFLECT 2000. The key themes identified were: “1. Entrepreneurship is a process or a continuum. The implication of this is that there is a focus on transition points/stages/critical events in a growing business. 2. Entrepreneurship is a life-long learning model. The implication is that there should be a focus on basic courses with modular components. 3. Entrepreneurship requires both quantitative and qualitative evaluation. The implication is that we focus on experience and document the results. 4. Entrepreneurs learn differently than most of us. The implication is that we focus on interactive, experiential methodologies as well as educational technologies” (Price-Babson College Fellows Program, 2000).
