Creating Entrepreneurial Identities in Social Entrepreneurship EducationBerea College
Training social entrepreneurs and innovators are becoming increasingly prevalent throughout the world highlighting the need for effective pedagogical strategies with robust outcomes. Research suggests that understanding what it takes to become a social entrepreneur is beyond just acquiring knowledge and skills to act entrepreneurially. This paper summarizes social identity and self-efficacy theories. A framework sets forth categories and applies data from student narratives as they develop these qualities. Results from an alumni self-study provide social identity and self-efficacy evidence. These results support our supposition that in the context of new social innovation, students’ curricular and co-curricular experiences lead to the development of identities, self-efficacy and increase their ability to affect positive social change. This research and presentation were created for the Society of Business Research Nashville, TN Conference on October 23rd-25th, 2014.

The study aimed to estimate the economic impact of trail users on the Pinnacle Trails in Berea, Kentucky. Data was collected through trail counts, surveys, and infrared sensors from 2017-2019. An estimated 48,895 annual users were calculated, with 85% being visitors who brought in an economic impact of $639,000. Additionally, there was a missed opportunity of $200,669 from in-state users within 50 miles who did not spend money. The trails are a natural asset that promote local economic development as the Kentucky Trail Town program grows.

Purpose - The purpose of this report was threefold: 1) to explore the development of a network arts, crafts, cultural heritage and natural resources trail systems that lead to Appalachian local economic development, 2) to collect user trail type, frequency, and duration on separate multi-state, multi-county, multi-use path in a rural Appalachian community, 2) to estimate the health impact of the trails. Six case study networks trail systems and outcomes are provided. This report was for the 40th Annual Appalachian Studies Conference that took place March 9th-12th, 2017 in Blacksburg, VA.
Multi state, multi-use trail system as tools for community economic development Berea College
Domestically and internationally multi-use trail development has experienced rapid growth as a driver of community economic transition as a stage in the evolution of resource-dependent settlements. Trails are an economic catalyst as tourist attractions and contribute to the quality of life for rural communities and local residents. In recent years trails surround a variety of themes such as culinary arts, wildlife observation, arts, crafts, and heritage. In Central Appalachia recreational trails refers to paths for specific uses such as hiking, cycling, horseback, and water travel.
This presentation first, summarizes the Appalachian research literature on the factors that contribute to the success of multi-state, multi-use trails as rural tourism attractions from a community development perspective. The presentation highlight features that support what a successful trail might be in Central Appalachia including new businesses, expanded businesses, job growth, and creation. The City of Berea Trail Town, certified in 2015 is offered as a community development destination. Second, applying ethnographic face-to-face observations and engagement (user-centered empathy design principles), personas were proposed to better understand customers user segments uncovered on TransAmerican cross-county USBR 76 from Yorktown VA to Astoria OR over six years. Third, using the Underground Railroad Route as a prototype, the presentation describes how the Berea College EPG Program students created a north-south USBR 21 from Atlanta GA, through Tennessee, Kentucky and onto Ohio. Finally, in partnership with the National Park Service and the Friends of the Boone Trace, Daniel Boone Trace Trail of 1775 from Cumberland Gap to Maysville Kentucky was designed to traverse through 5 counties and 11 municipal governments. After a one-year community development planning process in five counties and eleven municipal governments, USBR 21 is in the final stage of review with the Kentucky DOT and AHHSHTO. This presentation was for the Community Development Society's Annual International Conference on July 22nd-25th, 2018 in Detroit, Michigan.
Increasing entrepreneurial competence via team based learning: Insights from...Berea College
The Entrepreneurship for the Public Good Program at Berea College blends an understanding of how modest economic projects encourage entrepreneurial development in particular areas by thinking in terms of how to tailor resources to meet particular problems and what constitutes acceptable solutions. For ten years EPG has deployed TBL as an innovative teaching strategy applying entrepreneurial concepts to develop undergraduate entrepreneurial mindsets, using design thinking, evaluating and acting upon opportunities, applying the business model canvas and creating forecasted revenue streams aimed to enhance student engagement and improve teamwork. This case study examines the use of TBL in an undergraduate intense summer session for interdisciplinary students at a liberal arts college. The results indicate that TBL has a positive influence on student engagement and an appreciation and understanding of entrepreneurial competence. TBL offers opportunities to alter mindsets, assist learning, and practice entrepreneurial behaviors. The study concludes that TBL is an effective teaching process enabling educators to offer students enhanced and stimulating learning experiences. The case study contributes to the entrepreneurial and management education literature by assessing the first-time TBL experience of students. Key issues addressed are student mindsets, student engagement, opportunities for learning, and the benefits of teamwork in preparing students in community-based learning. This presentation was for the Academy of Business Research from October 24-26, 2018 in San Antonio, Texas.

Collegiate internships play a significant role in the professional development of undergraduate students. They provide students the opportunity to experience real-world expectations embedded within actual vocational environments under the support of their collegiate faculty. Although there are a number of common reasons why internships are utilized in each academic area, the requirements for the experiences are substantially different across disciplines and level of coursework. The environments for business and social entrepreneurship, service-oriented and servant leadership and civic engagement are distinct. The purpose of this paper is to explore some of the commonalities and differences that exist for internships across collegiate academic disciplines at the undergraduate level, introduce the concept of iterative reflective practices and identify their salience for programs from an interdisciplinary perspective. The focus on this presentation are the liberal arts including humanities, social science, and applied liberal arts disciplines leading to entrepreneurship internships in profit and not-for-profit sectors. This presentation was for the Academy for Business Research during the Spring 2018 Conference in New Orleans, LA.

Creating Tourism Value via Crowdsourcing: A First AttemptBerea College
Creating self-reliant rural communities in a global age (Shuman, 2000) and developing heritage and adventure tourism (Eller, 2009) are viewed as alternatives to classic tourism development in Appalachia. For five summers Berea College’s Entrepreneurship for the Public Good Program has collaborated with leadership within the Kentucky River Area Development District (KRADD) region building upon cell and smart phone prototypes tours, researching Kentucky travel and visitor’s patterns and exploring new social media strategies and tactics to market small businesses and nonprofit organizations throughout rural Appalachia in eight communities experiencing double-digit unemployment as of September 2012. This project mapped the community asset development within the KRADD through “personas” developed by EPG students for selected audiences based upon “How to spend 36 hours in an Eastern Kentucky County” modeled after the New York Times article for Asheville NC (2010), “Hike Pine Mountain, Channel Daniel Boone” NYT article (2008) and an article praising the lesser-known community of Whitesburg, Kentucky poised to become the South’s Next Great Mountain Town (July, 2011). This panel demonstrates the value created by customer reviews on websites like TripAdvisor, Yelp.com, and Facebook that can have a big impact on local independently-owned businesses, local attractions and civic destinations. Over 1,200 “crowd-sourced” reviews and 250,000 readers’ digital impressions captured the history, culture, arts and crafts, local foods, the greater outdoors KRADD assets. These crowd-sourced reviews can attract tourists, travelers and casual visitors to the western edge of Appalachian Mountains. This presentation was for the 36th Annual Appalachian Studies Conference on March 22nd-24th, 2013 in Boone, NC at Appalachian State University.
Localizing the Rural Economy from the Inside OutBerea College
The purpose of this workshop is to describe one Appalachian community's approach to developing a rural economic development strategy for creating jobs through new and expanding businesses in the context of the current recessionary times.
The workshop demonstrates methods for executing a community “strategic plan” and visioning process that lead to the identification of thirteen strategies for strengthening local rural businesses and three final community actions (alternative energy initiatives, community food system assessment, and crowdfunding) that can be particularly relevant for replication of Appalachian grassroots actions.
This workshop was for the 36th Appalachian Studies Conference on March 22nd, 2013 in Boone, NC at Appalachian State University.
