By also developing the theory base of entrepreneurship and innovation, also by studying and developing the underlying philosophies of entrepreneurship and innovation.

By incorporating experienced entrepreneurs and business people.

By extending courses to experienced entrepreneurs, to develop an additional knowledge process and cycle.

Interesting discussion! Following

By introducing and teaching strategic foresight, given the link between the future and radical innovation.

By teaching true learning, given the link between knowledge and creativity and entrepreneurship.

In that sense, advanced education and the quality of education have an indirect impact.

In Brazil, we use several methodologies to teach entrepreneurship and innovation, the students' ideas and motivations are great. The biggest problem is funding to encourage startups, incubators and accelerators

An Entrepreneurship cell where programs promoting entrepreneurial spirit among the students can be initiated. Business plan competitions can be held. An Incubation centre for ideas where angel investors can also participate will really help

Entrepreneurship is one of the key competences, and its' basic definition is ''turns ideas into action''. Each learning outcome/teaching goal that enables students to ''turn ideas into action'' is a part of ent. learning.

Apart from theoretical knowledge, a dire need of comprehensive knowledge and practical approach is desired.

China is trying with dedicated experimental classes where students use the elements of design thinking and rapid prototyping. The courses are taught by industry experts and they also encourage using real life problems to motivate students.

I am living a new experience in my university. In partnership with an association, we launched a competition among 7 teams of student in entreprise creation. The association gives us professionnel coaches and we, at the university, we give the academic side. A competition will be held in june and just 2 teams will be kept. These teams will participate in a national than an international competition.

It can be developed in universities through proper funding, employing competent teachers to be in charge and as well making sure it is more practically based.

Interesting question.

As many respondents mention, university teachers need to study, research on entrepreneurship, innovation and support it. Nothing can be achieved if it is not approved.

In Greece emphasis is paid on innovation and creativity.

Es una vieja discusión . Se desarrolla el emprendimiento cuando sea Política de Estado que integre, : UNiversidad, Empresas, Políticas educativas e innovación y productividad,

It's an old argument. Entrepreneurship is developed when it is State Policy that integrates,: UNiversity, Companies, Educational policies and innovation and productivity,

We have a center for entrepreneurship at my university in the Harmon College of Business and Professional Studies. They teach students how to become entrepreneurs and set up their own businesses or sell new ideas.

We train our students to identify viable business ideas and prepare a business plan. We plan to establish a business incubation center and facilitate new start ups. Teaching entrepreneurship should be done using practical approaches, games and interactive learning.

It is very important to link together the academy with the business sector. Integrating both, student will learn how to discover opportunities to develop ventures, detecting a unmet needs that allow the development of products and services. Also, it is essential to have a team of professors who have developed ventures, since from an experiential perspective they will be able to transfer their good and bad experiences when it comes to entrepreneurship. Finally, spaces must be created for the promotion of entrepreneurship, such as entrepreneurship and innovation fairs, where students show their developments to the community and they can receive feedback.

We have developed this type of activities and now it is transversal in our University. If someone likes, I can share the publication material as good practice, which is in Spanish.

Best regards.

By creating incubation centers and developing a culture of entrepreneurship.

The above discussion shows that the methods of teaching entrepreneurship and innovation are very different. In one, usually at earlier stages of the education process, the key issue is to transfer knowledge of doing business, the conditions for establishing and developing a company in a specific country, starting a startup, writing a business plan, developing a marketing strategy, conducting a SWOT analysis, financial analysis, running advertising campaigns, multi-faceted enterprise management, etc. On the other hand, at the university level, at the advanced level, as part of entrepreneurship education, the education process is carried out according to concepts based on practical classes, the key issue is for students to develop business development concepts, write a business plan and set up a specific business, startup, etc.

In the context of the above considerations, the following key questions arise:

- What types of entrepreneurship and innovation teaching methods are used at your universities?

- What type of entrepreneurship and innovation teaching method do you consider the most effective?

What do you think about this topic?

What is your opinion on this topic?

Please reply

I invite you to discussion

Thank you very much

Hi,

Different approaches can be applied for teaching entrepreneurship and innovation: pragmatic, interactive, experiential learning...

We still use the following Chinese proverb :

"tell me I'll forget. show me I'll remember. involve me I'll understand"

Involving students in entrepreneurial and innovative processes is much better for them in order to understand such complex processes.

I Think it should taught as creativity

We have a center for entrepreneurship at my university (ptuk). They teach students how to become entrepreneurs and able to develop their skills and create new ideas in order to contribute to establish own business.

I think experts from the field may be invited to do presentations on real life situations. Only classroom teaching devoid of experts' presentation may not be enough.

I have been teaching entrepreneurship courses at Azm university (Lebanon) since 2016. We use various student-centered and active learning teaching methods. Here are some of the teaching methods I use while teaching introduction to entrepreneurship course:

- Have the students apply the theory given (following an entrepreneurship textbook) in multi-part group project where each team identify a real business opportunity and work throughout the course to develop various business development elements like feasibility analysis, industry and competitor analysis, business model canvas, and a business plan presentation.

-Facilitate workshop-style sessions where I divide class into groups and let them work together to complete some activities like developing their business model canvas

-Invite local entrepreneurs as guest speaker in class to share their stories and motivate the students and then ask the students to provide feedback and discuss key lessons learned.

-Encourage (and support) students to participate in local and national business idea competitions even after they complete the course

I found the most effective teaching methods is the group project where work together on their own business ideas and applying the theory they learned in class.

The good way is adopt the methodology of "lean startup ": going outside the university to observe the society, understand the "job to be done" of people and test minimum viable products (mvp) on the ground and create real businesses...
