The document discusses the suitability of new entrepreneurship teaching methods for Greek universities. It presents two educational models from the University of Thessaly and Tiiamiakatemia in Finland. While the hands-on, experiential learning approaches seem promising, there are also challenges to implementing them in Greece including intensive academic curricula, limited university resources, cultural and administrative barriers, and Greek universities not being entrepreneurial themselves. Adapting new models would require addressing issues like integration into curricula and dealing with legal and financial barriers. The document raises the question of whether new teaching methods are suitable for Greek universities or vice versa.

4. University of Thessaly
Model suitability
Intensive curricula for students
Limited resources within the University
Cultural barriers
Administrative / organizational barriers
Entrepreneurship courses are regarded as
of secondary importance
Greek Universities are not entrepreneurial
themselves

5. “New entrepreneurship
teaching”: Let’s talk about
the LEIN/MU modelsee rocket
model @ www.tiimiakatemia.fi
Inspiring, motivating and streamlining team learning
integrated with individual learning
Team is everything – collective responsibility and action
Learning by doing: The key is “do, do, do, do, do…”:
Internationalization, “you have to go far away to see near”
Coaching instead of teaching
Self-motivation [Individual and team] and Self-organization
[Individual and team]

6. The suitability potential of
the LEIN/MU model in
Greek Universities
Integration within the existing University
Curricula
Institutional and cultural barriers
Legal and Tax related barriers (i.e. youth
cooperatives)
Resources, resources, resources
Ideas for making it happen?

7. What is the Question?
Is it if “new entrepreneurship teaching”
methods are suitable for Greek Universities?
Or whether
Greek Universities are suitable for “new
entrepreneurship teaching” methods?
And if this is the case,
Then what?

attention!!!
