Abstract: Can entrepreneurship be taught? Is it an art or a science? How is entrepreneurship learned? Another masterpiece by the European masters Fayolle and Klandt, this volume - based on the 2003 Grenoble Conference - will be useful for years to come, among educators and policymakers alike, especially those open to the emerging paradigm.' - Leo Paul Dana, University of Canterbury, New Zealand This book discusses paradigmatic changes in the field of entrepreneurship education in response to economic, politic and social needs, and the consequential need to reassess, redevelop and renew curricula and methods used in teaching entrepreneurship. Traditional and new questions and concerns are addressed, including: the development of business schools towards entrepreneurship education; best-practice methods of learning and teaching entrepreneurship both inside and outside the classroom; the design of effective teaching frameworks and tools; the development of entrepreneurial behaviours and attitudes in students; teaching the design and launch of new businesses. The issue of assessing the effectiveness of entrepreneurship education is also raised. A theoretical and methodological framework is used to measure the impact and effectiveness of entrepreneurship education programmes on the attitudes and behaviours of students. Now more than ever, the book argues, research in the field of entrepreneurship education has to be encouraged and facilitated and should drive the activity of entrepreneurship education providers. As such, this fascinating books aims to provide researchers, practitioners, teachers and advanced students engaged in the field of entrepreneurship with relevant and up-to-date insights of international research programmes in entrepreneurship education.
