. During the first three clue hunts, each team member had the chance to be a leader for thefirst time. Upon completion of the solution report, each team member including the leaderassessed the leader’s strengths and weakness without necessarily knowing what exactlyconstitutes a good leader. This served as a learning experience where each student decided whats/he wanted to see from a leader or what s/he should work on as a leader. For the last three cluehunts, each student was required to serve as leader one more time, but this time a more formalleadership assessment was performed. Various leadership skills were stated on a form and eachstatement was rated with a 5 point scale. The leader was given the completed forms, whichincluded a self

”factor(s) is or are, it is the opinion of many critics of entrepreneurship education that the topiccan be taught, but you can’t make someone an entrepreneur who does not have this “different”factor as a function of god’s will or fortunate genetics. As it is sometimes pithily articulated, oneis either born an entrepreneur or not.Legions of entrepreneurship educators around the country have heard this question and havegrown weary of responding. In our opinion, the question furtively is one of those trick questionsthat sounds profound but has no possible satisfactory answer. It’s similar to a question like “Areyou still beating your spouse”? The very attempt to answer the question provides it withundeserved legitimacy. The question about teaching

She also citedPeter Drucker’s observation in the 1980’s that there was a need for more knowledge to doentrepreneurship and that it was time to develop the “principles, the practice and thediscipline.”Economists view the supply of entrepreneurship as subject to the same forces as otherresource behavior. That is, it depends upon the perceived benefits and opportunity costsof the decision to pursue the entrepreneurial path. For example, the explosion ofentrepreneurship in India and China can be traced to expanded awareness and lowering ofobstacles to initiating new

It also evolved practically in a university-level evaluation of individual college assessment plans within that author’s experience.Designation and use of a head-judge/s is an intervention that we have used within our events. Each head judgeis assigned a team of judges. Each team of judges is then assigned a set of participants that a certain number ofjudges must rate. For example, a team may consist of three to five judges, be assigned to rate 12 contestants,with each contestant rated by a minimum of three judges. The head judge determines the logistics required tofulfill these conditions. Also, the head judge fields questions about the criteria and the judging process. At
