Abstract
Workshop at International Entrepreneurship Educators Conference.
Positioned outside of the curriculum, extra-curricular enterprise and entrepreneurship activities are often viewed as ‘additional activities’ that often face sustainability and resourcing issues (Rae et al., 2012; Preedy and Jones, 2015). Campaigning for their sustainability is hampered by the fact that little is known regarding their impact, not only for students but for other key stakeholders including educators. This interactive session, Impact and Extra-Curricular Enterprise and Entrepreneurship Education, will engage participants in a dynamic exploration of the impact of enterprise and entrepreneurship education outside the formal curriculum. The session will be structured in two parts. The first part will present the results of a national survey of enterprise and entrepreneurship educators relating to the impact of extra-curricular EEE
The second part of the session will use the survey results as a provocation, sparking discussions around the range and intensity of impact, encouraging delegates to reflect on their own experiences. Specifically, a tentative framework will be presented that explains the impact of extra-curricular enterprise and entrepreneurship education. We would like participants to respond to this framework, providing them with an opportunity to scrutinise it, provide feedback, share insights, and discuss practical considerations for its implementation. By the end of the session, attendees will leave with a deeper understanding of the impact of extra-curricular enterprise and entrepreneurship education, with implications for understanding the impact of EEE more generally, having contributed to the development of a framework to assess and enhance its impact.
