This will not be like your typical course. Be prepared. This will be about you! This will be about your history. Your experience. What you care about. And where you want to go. And, finally, the difference you want to make in the world. In short, what you want to leave behind as having made an impact on the lives of others. .............. It will be organized by a variety of activities. But, most importantly, it will be organized by your inquiry of entrepreneurship and how YOU can think and act entrepreneurially. I will push you to think about yourself. And I will push you to think out of the box. And I will push you to think about the difference you can make. More importantly, the difference you want to make. ............ Everything will be organized around what it means to think and act as an entrepreneurial change agent in education, through the review of many entrepreneurial endeavors, video interviews with entrepreneurial educators, and a variety of readings and video. Eventually, you will be asked to nucleate, incubate, and then accelerate what YOU might want do. And all of this activity is meant to serve your thinking and reflection, and hopefully it will serve as mechanism for you to be reflective of who you are and the difference you would like to make. BIG STUFF. But ... there it is. This is not meant to be a purely academic exercise, but an opportunity to think about yourself and the person you want to become to be able to make the difference in the world you want to make.
This will involve TRUST. Trust in the process. Trust in me. And trust in your fellow classmates. Most importantly, you come out of this experience with a better feel for who you are, what you care about, and a possible vision of how you can make a difference in the world.
