EL04 Teaching and Analyzing Entrepreneurship Case Studies Print E-mail

Prerequisite: none
Guest Instructor: Susan Harmeling, Ph.D.

This one-day seminar introduces entrepreneurship case studies as a tool for stimulating active learning in any discipline. Entrepreneurship case studies are student-centered activities based on topics that demonstrate theoretical concepts in an applied setting. This interactive learning strategy will be taught by an experienced case writer and entrepreneurship professor.

Upon successful completion of this workshop, you will be able to:

  1. Teach students how to apply theoretical concepts to real-life examples.
  2. Help your students develop key skills such as communication, teamwork, and problem-solving.
  3. Identify the differences and similarities between project-based learning (similar in structure to case- study learning) and problem-based learning.
