My recent keynote to Japan's great new consortium to promote entrepreneurship education, focusing here on how to assess its impact/outcomes. Fit nicely with my project with EU called "EPIC" (http://epic.ecorys.com) Great audience, great questions - when the video is published, i'll link to it!
This presentation provides an overview of approaches to developing you vision and mission, as well as the critical nuances tied to company culture. It also features an insightful case example from Salsify.
This lecture was delivered to undergraduates at Duke University's Pratt School of Engineering for the course on How to Form New Ventures in Electrical and Computer Engineering.
The better you understand your content and content owners, the more effectively you can analyze your content and make it better for the long term. This workshop covers common content challenges and the organizational issues that cause them, and then delves into how to create the right kind of inventory and analysis that drive improvements.
Using Groupsites to Construct Knowledge Sharing and Learning InfrastructuresPeter Bond
Presentation of a case in which an online collaboration platform was used to support a university based course in technology entrepreneurship. Exemplifies the opportunities and problems of using collaboration platforms to support learner networks including Communities of Practice.
The 2nd Dec EODF Glasgow session focussed on the Future of Work. I wanted to move the conversation on from "whats" happening in the future to "so what" are the implications for us today by merging a cut down scenario planning process with Galbraiths Star model.

Innovation is something new, something original out of the existing resources. It may span over : product, process, services, business model, delivery model or thought process or organisational structure
The goals of this session were to understand what content strategy is and how to get started, to learn how to make content strategy part of the organization's communications, and to prepare content to be found and used anywhere, on any device.
Organizations produce a lot of content and publishes it across multiple channels, but does it have a purpose? Does it help meet strategic goals, increase customer value, or help an audience achieve its goals? This session covered the steps involved in creating an effective content strategy, and how to incorporate content strategy tactics and processes into current work The workshop included hands-on exercises, providing participants with tools they could use right away at work.

Idaho passed draconian legislation enabling excessive enforcement on noncompetes in 2017 - we got made fun of (see slide 12) but in 2018, Senate Bill S1287aa is moving things back but it could go farther --assuming we want to increase job creation. (Job mobility is essential to business dynamism; business dynamism is essential to job creation (& GDP, innovation, etc.)

Developing the seedbed (by David Narum of Arcata CA)Norris Krueger
A very cool battle plan to help Arcata, California to become an entrepreneurial powerhouse. MANY lessons for others, small and large... I can't take credit - this is by David Narum of Arcata - I would LOVE to hear your thoughts on how broadly applicable this is!
from bottom of prior recession to top of prior expansion - these percentages are pretty normal nationally. Lots of churn in jobs, lots of entries & exits but clear pattern:
Gross job creation is mostly startups,
Net job creation is from existing firms,
Basically nada from businesses moving in.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2. An EPIC Adventure:
How Should We Assess
Entrepreneurship Education?
Norris Krueger, PhD
Nagoya, October 2018
Norris.krueger[at]gmail.com
3. Great programs do great assessment
• Or do they?
• What makes an entrepreneurship education
program great?
• Evidence from primary/secondary
• Assessment is not in a vacuum
• Evidence from research – not encouraging
– https://journals.aom.org/doi/10.5465/amle.2015.0026
• One impressive data point, though…
4. Evidence from primary/secondary
• What do great programs all share?
• Constructivistic approaches (e.g., project-
based learning)
• Deep engagement with external communities
• Student-led, student-designed
• Highly-trained instructors
• And.. productive assessment (not rote)
– Why not assess on these criteria?
5. Evidence from the Netherlands
• http://www.bit.ly/OECDdelta
• Key takeaways of relevance here:
– Some great programs to emulate but…
– Ecosystem matters.. Deeply (mindset<->ecosystem)
– Putting stakeholders first
– Building networks/co-immersion
– Evidence-based (before, during, after)
6. Learning is a Process
• Inputs Throughputs Outputs
• Assess all three?
• KEY INPUTS
– Students, Instructors, Pedagogy, Setting (& ?)
• KEY THROUGHPUTS
– Key activities (are we doing the right things the
right way?)
• KEY OUTPUTS (where we usually focus)
8. Cognitive load?
• Great education optimizes learner’s cognitive
load…
https://www.science20.com/carl_wieman/scientific_approach_science_education_reducing_cognitive_load
• Why not measure that , given its importance,
what unique insights?
• What other educator/student pedagogical
behaviors? (use of specific tools )
• AND…
• How could we use neuroscience tools – fMRI,
EEG, etc.?? (London cabbies) Can we assess
SKILLS? https://www.wsj.com/articles/brain-scans-can-detect-
who-has-better-skills-1538589600
9. Other cognitive measures
• Cognitive complexity
• Cognitive flexibility
• Cognitive reflection
• “Hot” vs. “Cold” cognition
– https://www.nature.com/articles/456168a ;
http://www.alanbarrell.com/uploads/Nature%20Commentary.pdf
• Changes in working memory?? (does high-
uncertainty/high-velocity/high-stakes decision making
experiences expand working memory?)
• Metacognition! https://catlintucker.com/2018/09/4-
strategies-metacognitive-thinking/ <-incredibly
important for PBL and entrep ed!

Triangulation!
Method?
By level?? (action vs. thinking vs. biological)
By type of impact???

18. Entrepreneurial Mindset
• “noncognitive” = deep cognition ;)
• Evidence/lessons from neuroscience
– NOT intent, much more
– DEEP cognitive beliefs/anchoring assumptions
– That we construct, often not mindfully, and influenced by
context and social influences… we buiild/change knowledge
structures based on context and people
– Multiple facets/dimensions
– Indirect measures -> Markers that reflect beliefs

• Think Value Proposition for them
• https://www.slideshare.net/norriskrueger/how-to-be-your-
ecosystems-liaison-animateur
• This might be the right place to start?
23. Policymakers WILL recognize great
experiential learning
In part because we documented impact on the community
http://bit.ly/TEAMSovw & http://bit.ly/EntrepEdChapt
24. A little homework!
• Identify one important stakeholder that
needs to be persuaded that world-class
entrepreneurship education is valuable.
• What metric/KPI/marker would persuade
them or make them happy?
25. So how do you assess?
inputs throughputs outputs
behaviors
knowledge
skills
mindset
external impact
other?
Which do you WANT to assess?
