Designing an online entrepreneurship course for Higher Education: preliminary issues and challenges

Περίληψη

 Despite the long standing tradition of higher education institutions in developing and delivering high quality education, the task of incorporating and diffusing an ‘entrepreneurial spirit’ in the conventional higher education paradigm is rather demanding. Reflecting upon our experience of developing an open online entrepreneurship course for students in a Greek HEI, in this paper we illustrate how entrepreneurial education challenges conventional didactic and pedagogical understandings and we showcase different ways in which ICT (and its relevant tools) may be best exploited in order to accommodate for the distinctive requirements of entrepreneurial education.
