Newswise — Babson College’s Price-Babson Symposium for Entrepreneurship Educators (SEE) – where participants explore the entrepreneurial process with a focus on the “art and craft” of teaching and learning entrepreneurship in order to raise the quality, content, and process of teaching entrepreneurship – took place January 9-13 at the Babson Executive Conference Center (BECC). This is an additional offering as a result of high demand following the annual program last spring.
The program provides an introduction to case method teaching and live, venture-based teaching methodologies.
Participants are prepared to identify, plan, and personalize their entry (or re-entry) strategy into academia, and to improve as teachers, learners, researchers, colleagues, and entrepreneurs.
They identify and explore new content, programs, and materials, and are exposed to current market trends and dynamics.
