This workshop aims at exploring if and how a framework of different approaches to
entrepreneurship education (EE) can encourage and support teachers from various disciplines in developing their students’ entrepreneurial capacity, as well as what the content and format of the framework should be.
We represent a “joint venture” between a university college and a university. The aim of this collaboration was to design a series of EE professional development courses for researchers, educators and consultants from various disciplines as part of an EU-funded project.
When evaluating the first courses delivered, we noticed that quite a few participants felt uncertain about: What can EE offer for my students, and how can I integrate it into existing courses and/or develop relevant new courses? This led us to develop a first prototype of a framework describing different EE “configurations” from innovative pedagogies and enterprising behaviour (e.g. Gibb, A., 1993) to venture creation pedagogy (e.g. Lackéus, 2018).
In some contexts, the framework seemed helpful, but in others, it seemed to create more confusion. This is why we together with the workshop participants want to explore: How can the EE framework be further developed and applied in different disciplinary contexts?
We will open the workshop with an 10 minutes introduction to the framework, the theoretical underpinnings as well as preliminary experiences. Thereafter, we will divide the participants into a maximum of 4 random breakout rooms. Here the focus will be on iterations on the framework: What should be added, omitted, restructured, communicated in another way etc.
After 15 minutes the breakout rooms will be reorganised into as homogeneous disciplinary breakout rooms as possible. During this last part of the workshop the groups will discuss the benefits of applying the framework in different disciplinary contexts.
